The Jambalaya at Pat O'brien's was pretty good, tho the pecan pie with freshly whipped creme was better
We ate at lots of places... there was a neighborhood diner in the garden district called camille's or something - kinda like an upscale waffle house - excellent shakes and cheeseburgers. We ate at one of emeril's restaurants - nola (we weren't dressed well enough to get into his other restaurant
). The food was *excellent* tho, I had:
Buttermilk Fried Breast of Chicken with Bourbon Mashed Sweet Potatoes, Smithfield Ham Cream Gravy and Sautéed Sugar Snap Peas
yum! yum!
Melanie had:
"Shrimp & Grits" Sautéed Gulf Shrimp, Grilled Green Onions, Smoked Cheddar Grits, Apple Smoked Bacon, Crimini Mushrooms, Creole Tomato Glaze and Red Chili-Abita Butter Sauce
We had chocolate bourbon pecan pie with sweet potato ice cream and Drew and Amy had something equally tastey.
David had a bottle mid-way through dinner and kept the waiters/ maitre-d and manager entertained
Cafe-au-lait and beignets at cafe du monde, and po-boys at the french market cafe - we could *barely* walk away from nola
New Orleans is an ok place to visit, the food is amazing and the historic garden district beautiful, but unless you are into bars and drinking, there really isn't much else to go there for. We probaby won't be back for another 10 years
AAhh OOOOOGAHH!!!
