Up&Adam Eatz, New Orleans, LA Report #585

Last Saturday, at about 10:50 AM, we came here to eat. Thinking we beat the lunchtime crowd we were surprised to see about 15 people sitting and standing outside waiting for a table! We ended up going to El Pavo Real. Today we got here at about 10:30 AM and were lucky enough to get…

Radosta’s Famous Po-Boys, Metairie, LA Report #576

This place is tucked away in a residential neighborhood in Metairie, well off the beaten path. You wouldn’t find it unless you were looking for it. I came across it some time ago by accident. I went to Nor Joe Imports, and when I left a train was blocking the main drag back to New…

Bourbon House, New Orleans, LA Report #558

I recently heard this place mentioned so I checked out the menu online. I really liked what I saw! There were a bunch of what I might call combo dishes on the menu. More on that later. So today we decided to come down into the French Quarter and check them out. Speaking of menus,…

Boudin King, Jennings, LA Report #524

Boudin is a sausage made with pork, rice and numerous seasonings. I love it! It’s about impossible to find good boudin in the New Orleans metro area. Today I found myself driving from Lake Charles, Louisiana, back to New Orleans, through the heart of Cajun country where you can get great boudin. I see a…

The Court Of Two Sisters, New Orleans, LA Report #500

Report #500. When I started doing these blogs, I never imagined I’d get here. And I’m sure the few of y’all that read my work didn’t think so either, considering the rubbish I put out! But a couple things helped me get here. I keep not dying and I love eating, so the numbers keep…

The Country Club, New Orleans, LA Report #421

NOTE: This restaurant is located in Orleans Parish, so by Mayoral Decree, at the time of this writing you need to be vaccinated against COVID or have a very recent negative test to dine inside. I’ve been hearing about this place for awhile. They’re known for their weekend Drag Brunch and their food. If you…

Don’s Seafood, Metairie, LA Report #414

The original Don’s Seafood opened in Lafayette, Louisiana, in 1934. I’m not sure when this location opened, but it’ been here as long as I can remember. Located on a main drag in Metairie, I’ve driven past it countless times. When this place comes up and I tell someone I’ve never been to Don’s, they’re…

American Sports Saloon, New Orleans, LA Report #395

Normally, there’s no way I’d end up at a sports bar in the French Quarter. But way back in Report #334 I explained how I get reward points for hotel stays for dining at certain restaurants. I got an email (2nd picture above), telling me I’d get 500 bonus points for spending $30 at this…

Elizabeth’s, New Orleans, LA Report #369

I’ve been wanting to try this place for some time. We actually ended up in this neighborhood trying to eat at a different restaurant, but it was closed. According to Google it opened at noon, but they really opened at 4:00 PM. Never trust Google. I should have known better. Nice looking little place with…

Bear’s Poboys, Metairie, LA Report #287

This place is technically called Bear’s Poboys at Gennaro’s because it’s in the same building as a very old Metairie bar that carries that name.  It was also called that to differentiate them from their other location on Veterans Blvd, which sadly closed down due to this Coronavirus pandemic. We had to sit outside today,…
