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…

Miss Shirley’s, New Orleans, LA Report #584

I’ve been in this building before. I dined here over 5 years ago. Back then it was also a Chinese restaurant named Jung’s Golden Dragon II. I ate there once and that was enough. It was terrible. I’m not surprised it closed down. Well, the golden dragon is still on the building, but now it’s…

Hansen’s Sno-Bliz, New Orleans, LA Report #582

Short report. I normally don’t do restaurant reports on snowball stands because I don’t consider them restaurants. But this place is a New Orleans institution that deserves mentioning. They’ve been slinging snowballs here for 84 years! If you want more info here’s their website: https://snobliz.square.site/ The main thing that makes a snowball good is the…

NOLA Pizza Co., New Orleans, LA Report #580

New Orleans isn’t a pizza town like New York or Chicago. I once took an Amtrak train to New York. When we got to my stop we were in an underground tunnel. I went up some stairs and was in the middle of New York city! I had no idea the Amtrak trains ran on…

Lucy Boone Ice Cream, New Orleans, LA Report #579

I like ice cream. I happen to be a Dairy Queen rewards member. Love that place. Besides their ice cream creations, I like their burgers and fries. I mention that because I just happened to be in there yesterday looking at ice cream cakes for Mother’s Day. There was a nice looking one I started…

Mukbang Vietnamese Street Food, New Orleans, LA Report #578

Normally I could care less what you decide to name a restaurant, but for some reason I wanted to know what the hell a “Mukbang” might be. A quick internet search for the definition said it was, “(especially in South Korea) a video, especially one that is live-streamed, that features a person eating a large…

Morning Call, New Orleans, LA Report #577

Nowadays a bunch of restaurants you walk into have beignets and café au lait on the menu. But back in the day if you wanted that you had two choices. Café du Monde or Morning Call. I guess you can call Morning Call the new kid on the block. They opened in the French Quarter…

Two Chicks Café, New Orleans, LA Report #570

I first heard about this place last year. I checked out the menu online, liked what I saw, and put it on my ever-growing list of places I wanted to try. January 22nd of this year we decided to come in. When we arrived, there was a line out the door and down the block.…

Hurts Donut Company, New Orleans, LA Report #568

I think it was maybe Tuesday this week a guy brought a few dozen of these donuts to work. I had never heard of this place. They looked beautiful, and everyone raved about how good they were. I didn’t try any because I watch what I eat during the week and work out so I…

Mucho Mas Mexican Eatery and Lounge, New Orleans, LA Report #560

I love Mexican food. I was searching the internet for a new place to try and came upon this joint. After checking out the menu, a few unique and interesting dishes caught my eye, so we decided to pop in. Since my iPhone photography isn’t the best, and you probably can’t read the menu in…
