New Orleans: Paradise for Adolescents and Foodies!
Good piece by David Rosengarten, leaving aside the inevitable “Big Easy” clichés. I would however take issue with the notion that the best oysters are to be had in NOLA. It’s the Pacific Northwest, specifically Washington State and B.C. that has the best raw oysters. And I say that as someone who knows and deeply…
New Orleans’ Top 10 restaurants for 2012
As with all lists, this is bound to be contentious – and of course this being NOLA you can have wildly delicious food without going to a fancy eatery. Of the top-10 I have only been to one – the perennial Commander’s Palace. And yes, it did live up to being one of my most…
Scotch Hunter
I don’t normally recommend websites/blogs but this one was started by two enthusiasts with day jobs in another world. I assume their naming of their website Scotch Hunter is a tribute/allusion to the chap that started me on the road to educating me in beer, scotch and other wonderful drinks – the late Michael Jackson…
New Orleans: Mon Amour
Love NOLA: Ten things you learn from living in New Orleans By Brett Will Taylor Good grief. Yesterday marked the two-year anniversary of my move from Boston to New Orleans.

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?
86-year-old returns to New Orleans, fulfilling wish of a lifetime Her eyes still light up when she talks about New Orleans. When asked the top three reasons she loves New Orleans, she quickly answers with, “the food, the music, but especially the people,” referring to her close friends and the 400,000 friendly locals who make…
Floyd’s American Pie
Food writing at it’s entertaining best. This is the guy (a wonderful character – who else would use the rather naughty The Stranglers’ Peaches as a theme tune) who brought me to Dooky Chase and Paul Prudhomme – I let the latter know of this 20 year journey and he very kindly sent me a lovely inscribed…
Hubig’s Pies
It’s been just over a week since Hubig’s Pies burnt to the ground. To get a sense of the importance of this institution here is no less the NYT and the local view from NOLA.com. foodHubigHubig’s New Orleans Style Pieshubig’s piesnew orleansPies and Pastry
Biking, boozing and nosebagging
Once one has worked the brashness and tat of Bourbon Street through one’s system the best way to discover NOLA is to take a bicycle tour through the Confederacy of Cruisers. Not only is the owner/operator Jeff Shyman a history buff giving a warts and all appreciation of NOLA but he is also another “character” that…
