Pizza Domenica, New Orleans, LA Report #484

I had been in the mood for pizza since Friday. That night we had an excellent dinner at a Cajun restaurant named Gabrielle, so no pizza. But I planned to take care of that Saturday night, because we were going to an Italian place called Randazzo’s. Wouldn’t you know I pick maybe the only Italian…

Randazzo’s Family Restaurant, Metairie, LA Report #483

A few nights ago I did something I hadn’t done in years. Looked at the restaurant section in Groupon. I used to do it pretty often to get ideas on new places to try, plus it saves you some money. Nothing wrong with that! There was a deal in there for this place. I bought…

Gabrielle Restaurant, New Orleans, LA Report #482

Father’s Day just passed. I have a daughter who looks at my index of restaurant reports to see where I have NOT been yet. When it’s time to buy me a gift, she gets me a gift certificate to one of those places. What a good child! So, I got a gift certificate here for…

Mr. B’s Bistro, New Orleans, LA Report #481

Decided to venture into the French Quarter today for a Father’s Day Brunch at Mr. B’s Bistro. One thing I hate about coming into the French Quarter is parking. That’s not a problem here. There’s a parking garage right behind the restaurant. It’s located at 721 Iberville St., and you can park there for just…

Segnette Landing Restaurant, Westwego, LA Report #480

Besides being an expert eater, I also happen to be a pretty good cook. I’m cooking a chicken dish that also calls for shrimp. About the only time I drive down to Westwego is to go to this place we call the shrimp lot. It’s a big parking lot with seafood vendors on both sides.…

Gogi Korean Restaurant, Metairie, LA Report #479

I realized that my restaurant reporting seriously lacks Korean cuisine. I only have two reports on Korean joints, and one of those was in London, England! The other was Little Korea BBQ, and I went there way back in June of 2019. I enjoyed it, so I’m not sure why I never went back. All…

Coffee &, Marrero, LA Report #478

Marrero is located just south of New Orleans, on the WestBank of the Mississippi River. I live in the part of New Orleans that’s on the Westbank (called Algiers), so it’s not far from my house at all. I’ve seen this place several times, and always thought it was just a little donut shop. Well,…

The Wandering Goat, Harahan, LA Report #477

I work with a guy who knows I do a food blog. One night he tells me he’s got a place I just MUST try! Then he tells me it’s this place. I look it up and see it’s a bakery. In another city, a Parish away. And the funny thing is he lives in…

Happy Italian Pizzeria, Harahan, LA Report #476

This place is located on a main drag in Harahan, but the way it’s tucked away in a little strip mall you can drive past it and easily not notice it. Even though I don’t get down to Harahan often, I’m speaking from experience. Passed it many times and never noticed it was there. Turns…

The Crazy Italian, New Orleans, LA Report #475

The last time I was in this place it was Chap’s Chicken, but they ended up moving to Metairie. I liked the fact this space is attached to a convenience store. Back when it was Chap’s, if there was anything you wanted to go with your meal that the restaurant didn’t offer, like beer, hard…
