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…

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…

Down The Hatch, New Orleans, LA Report #559

Is it just me, or does it seem like bars always have the best burgers? Why is that? It seems like if I owned a business whose main purpose was to get customers as liquored up as possible, I wouldn’t worry that much about the food. But they do. At least here in New Orleans.…

Casamento’s Restaurant, New Orleans, LA Report #553

First off, they ONLY takes cash here! I didn’t know that. I checked my wallet and had $50 on me, which isn’t near enough for lunch as greedy as I am. I had to use their ATM. Hadn’t used one of those in forever. After I put my card in it asked if I wanted…

Avo, New Orleans, LA Report #542

I get emails from this website called Eater New Orleans. They sent me this one entiltled, “Here are the tastiest Italian eats in New Orleans“. Click on that title if you want to see the list. Man, I wish they haden’t done that. If they hadn’t, I might have stayed home tonight and ate a…

Hangout Ramen, New Orleans, LA Report #532

It’s been pretty warm here in New Orleans. I’m talking 80 degree temps in December. But that’s about to change. It’s cold right now by our standards. 48 degrees as I’m writing this. But by Christmas it’ll be in the 20’s. That’s very rare, bone chilling cold to us New Orleanians! So I need to…
