Bakery Bar, New Orleans, LA Report #697

Much to my dismay my daughter married a guy from England. She lives over there now but happens to be in town. The wedding was here in New Orleans and we had the reception at the Palace Café. They did a really great job. When she was planning the wedding she asked me if I… Continue reading Bakery Bar, New Orleans, LA Report #697

This place is located inside the Higgins Hotel right across the street from the World War II Museum.

Outpost 45, New Orleans, LA Report #693

Sometimes people will suggest a restaurant to me, I’ll write it down, and it may take me a year or two to get there. In this case, a good friend of mine told me about this joint at 2:30 PM. She made it sound so good at 2:45 PM I had 6:00 PM reservations, and… Continue reading Outpost 45, New Orleans, LA Report #693

Yinzer’s, New Orleans, LA Report #692

Decades ago, I took a trip to Philadelphia and had a cheesesteak sandwich. I think it was at a place called Jim’s on South St. I’ll never forget, there was this older guy working the grill. To his right he had a big tub of thinly sliced beef and to his left he had a… Continue reading Yinzer’s, New Orleans, LA Report #692

Mr. B’s Bakery, New Orleans, LA Report #691

Here’s a little bakery on the Westbank of New Orleans that I bet a lot of people don’t know about. It’s on a main drag through Algiers, but kind of hidden in a strip mall. If you know where Chubbie’s Chicken is it’s located right across the street. When I say little, I mean little!… Continue reading Mr. B’s Bakery, New Orleans, LA Report #691

Francesca by Katie’s, New Orleans, LA Report #686

The Katie’s in the name of this place refers to a restaurant named Katie’s in Mid-City. That place is great, so I had no doubt this joint would be good! Their website describes them as an Italian themed deli and pizzeria with St. Louis style food with a New Orleans flair. That’s a mouthful. I… Continue reading Francesca by Katie’s, New Orleans, LA Report #686

Couvant, New Orleans, LA Report #683

I’ve driven past this restaurant numerous times and never noticed it. That’s because even though they have a small sign and an entrance from the street, it’s kind of hidden inside the Eliza Jane hotel. It’s right across the street from a fantastic steakhouse called Chophouse. I’m always looking for unique dishes to try. When… Continue reading Couvant, New Orleans, LA Report #683

Queen Trini Lisa, New Orleans, LA Report #681

According to their website this restaurant serves Trinbagonian Island Soul Food. Ever heard of that? Ever had it? If not, we were in the same boat because it was new to me too.

Café Fleur De Lis, New Orleans, LA Report #679

A few months ago I received an email highlighting New Orleans breakfast spots, and this restaurant was featured. It looked great so I added it to my list. But not this location.
