MeMe’s Bar & Grille, Chalmette, LA Report #486

You see that map in the second picture above? See that little blue dot right under the “S” in “Orleans”? That’s my house. See the red dot right over the word “Chalmette”? That’s where this restaurant is. Short drive, right? Well, it would be if it wasn’t for that dumb little thing they call the…
