The Midway Pizza, New Orleans, LA Report #504

I heard this place specializes in New Orleans style deep dish pizzas. I didn’t know such a thing existed! I know Chicago is famous for them. I’ve never really been a deep dish guy. I like thin and crispy crust. But, if that’s what this place is known for, I figured I’d give it a…

Blaze Pizza, New Orleans, LA Report #497

I didn’t know this place existed. We came down here into the CBD to have the COOLinary lunch at Willa Jean. After waiting for a bit to be seated, we were told they weren’t doing the COOlinary lunch today! And they couldn’t tell us why. Well, we had to feed a parking meter to park…

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…

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…

Redfish Pizza, Kenner, LA Report #465

For being on a main street, this place is really off the beaten path. If you look at the maps above in the 3rd and 4th pictures, it’s about the last thing you find before you hit Lake Pontchartrain and can’t go any further. So why even come this way? There is a Riverboat Casino…

Biaggi’s Ristorante Italiano, Ridgeland, MS Report #409

Well, I’m still exiled in the Jackson, Mississippi area after Hurricane Ida hit New Orleans. Funny thing is if you notice the cloudy, rainy skies in the first two pictures above, that’s because now Tropical Storm Ida is here! Received a text from “NOLA Ready”, which puts out information about the city. They advised if…

Tower Of Pizza, Metairie, LA Report #402

This place is on the very busy main drag through Metairie, so I’ve driven past it countless times. Tonight we happened to be in the pizza mood and in the area, so we decided to stop in. It’s located in a small strip mall right next to the Black & Gold and Purple & Gold…

Oak Oven, Harahan, LA Report #370

I live in New Orleans and haven’t dined in Harahan in a some time. These reports I do are hugely popular, and I don’t want to neglect my Harahan readers. I’m sure I’ve got at least a few million there! I keep a list of restaurants I want to try, and this place was on…

Mona Lisa, New Orleans, LA Report #364

I was perusing one of my favorite foodie pages on social media and someone mentioned this place. I looked it up and read the reviews. People raved about it! And I was in the mood for Italian so we headed down to the French Quarter to give it a try. The sign outside is just…
