      Just got back from a conference in NO on Thursday.

      On the plus side - the city is cleaner than ever before.

      But it’s dead, dead, DEAD.

      That idiot mayor LaToya the Destroyer has completely wrecked that economy.

          I prefer Drago’s for oysters over Acme.

          X2 in the WW2 museum, it’s great.

          Go get drinks at the Columns Hotel on St Charles....on your way to go grab dinner on Magazine St. (lots of great options over there)

          Audubon Zoo is great if you have kids (or even without kids). Beautiful part of the city with all the giant oaks.

          Walk up Royal St., then walk back down Bourbon St.

          Gamble at Harrahs.

            Last time we went, we stayed at the Hotel Monteleone. It’s got a cool bar that rotates around the middle. The steakhouse across the street has great desserts. The WWII Museum is fantastic. I haven’t been in a few years and want to go back, but I’m gonna wait until the Covid craziness dies down

                Willow Jean or Camellia Grill for breakfast.
                Oceana also has awesome breakfast.

                I don't recommend the Ruby Slipper for breakfast.

                Going to NOLA from Tx may want to take a short side trip to Middendorf's in Manchac, La for thin fried catfish.

                WWII Museum (both parts) is well worth the money.

                      Mothers was a great place to eat before Katrina hit, once the national media started talking about it the prices went up and the quality went down. It’s a shame because my wife really enjoyed going there. Middendorfs in Hammonds is well worth the short detour off of I-10 to eat some good thin fried catfish .

                        Aquarium is right next door to ^^^

                        Very nice Audubon Zoo

                        Cafe du Monde for coffee and beignets

                        Lots of other museums and galleries in the Qtr

                        Take a street car down St Charles Ave from Carrolton to the CBD

                        Eat at Camelia Grill - st Charles & carrolton

                        If you want killer food and other suggestions, search my previous posts on New Orleans

                        ACME or Dragos for charbroiled oysters

                        Walk around Jackson square and visit the St Louis cathedral
                        Blake obviously knows....even back in ‘12. I personally prefer Dragos charbroiled oysters. May just be the best thing in Nawlins IMO. Like me some cafe du Monde beignets as well.
