New Orleans - Where are the spots?

[Don Coreleone]

I will be relocating to New Orleans at the end of the week after being away 17 years.

Everything you think you remember about NOLA, unlearn it. That city surprises me everytime I come visit.

good shyt....welcome back....

im a former concierge and butler out there.....

now in process of establishing my own concierge service in NO....

city is still in shutdown more or less....everything has just about been cancelled from concerts to festivals....

they even talking about moving Saints games to LSU....

weird out here now....but it'll come back....

New Orleans is a city that basically functions off of tourism.....without the city is in serious trouble

Heading down south next week and curious on great food spots in NO. Any suggestions? Particularly black creole cuisine?

Looking for all the staples as this is our first time down there. Etouffe, Gumbo, Jambalaya, Po Boys, Muffalatas, Seafood boils etc ..

Put me on family.

My two favorites whenever I stop through NO...
For Breakfast / Brunch, my go to is Surrey's Cafe on Magazine.
For all things black creole, Lil Dizzy's Cafe on Esplanade is mandatory eating.

To bump an older thread. I am going home for a week during mardi gras and I haven't been home for longer than a day in years. Where is the best king cake? Best po boy spot for shrimp or oyster po boys? I usually go to the gas station on broad and banks to get my po boys when I am in town. And best daiquiri spot for locals?

I’m hearing a lot about

Dong Phuong Almond flavored… I have t tried it

But if you want cheap fresh King Cake, find a Rouses and you’d be good


Now I went to Maurice’s in Kenner and got a Ponchatrain king cake. That bih was $50 but my gal was when she opened the box

Bruh, I read about that Dong Phoung place and was like who the hell is this? But bet I will definitely check out Maurices's. I will get it to bring back with me and prolly get a slice or two from Rouses while there. Thanks fam!!!

I might take a ride and see what Doug got to offer… but let me know what you think..


I normally just get cinnamon to get the traditional taste and don’t want to take chances with all of those crazy fillings…

But that Ponchatrain king cake ain’t cinnamon, that thang ain’t no punk

 

[cap213]

Man, I ain't gonna eat all that. It looks like it is delicious though.

Any poboy spots better than the one on broad and banks for seafood poboys? I am sure there are tons but the ones I went to before are closed.

 

[^SpiderMan^]

What sites or tours do yall recommend? Is a rental car necessary?

I never did any tours and yeah you need a car unless you RTA bound and that is not a look for a visitor. I think there are cemetary tours both haunted and regular. And prolly one covering french quarters and cbd but I can't speak on that one man.

Got this and went straight to sleep in the car. Wasn’t bad for $14.99

 

[cap213]

Nah bruh, I don't think that is it. This one is in a gas station on broad by the old jail just off tulane. Triangle is up in gentilly just off orleans right?
