Back from New Orleans


Back from New Orleans 1627
Wayne Boatwright there are still huge parts of the city without power. Over where the levee failed there was a house in...

I got back from New Orleans this afternoon and sadly, I've nothing interesting to report foodwise. The bulk of my time was spent up in Slidell with David and his friends and family. Any places of note or interest in Slidell are pretty much wiped out. I ate at a 'Lebanese' place one night (they served kaiser rolls with plates of dipping oil liberally sprinkled with canned parmesan) and a 'mexican place that used fake cheese in the quesadilla. I did manage some pretty good sushi last night, however.

My favorite Indian restaurant in the world had just recently re-opened, but they only had buffet service as there just was not enough staff or supplies. Sadly, it seems they have new ownwers and the owners were what made me love that place.

I had a pbuttable shrimp po' boy, but nothing compared to what I have eaten before.

I rang in the New Year at Jackson Square in the French Quarter, a completely unexpected trip (I was expecting to watch David and his friends blow things up).

All in all, the trip was hard (it was heartbreaking to see the destruction) but there were many highlights. David and I had a great time together. Now I just have to wait patiently for him to come home.
