Odds generally would have been favorable but in this case I’ll miss you by one week and by one country. I’ll be in Japan between Dec. 16-21. So close, damn!

Have often repped for it here but Cochon is my favorite restaurant in the USDave N. wrote: Sat Nov 23, 2024 9:33 am My lady has a bidness meeting in New Orleans this weekend, and I’m tagging along. Sitting in the airport, looking forward to stuffing my face with po boys and beignets. Staying in the Garden District tonight. Accepting restaurant recommendations.
Edit/Update: Surrey (on Magazine St)- Had lunch at this little dive. Veggie po’boy with goat cheese, gumbo, and potato salad. Excellent po’boy. French bread is held to a high standard in this city. Crunchy, flaky, light. French bread in TX is always so rubbery and doughy. Excellent roasty gumbo. Tater salad was mayo, paprika, and other delicious whatnot. Recommended, but expect at least a half hour wait for lunch.
Coquette (on Magazine and Washington)- Had smothered flounder with a stewed okra and smoked trout roe. Gulf oysters for an appetizer. Delicious, but the service wasn’t so hot. Took an hour to get our meal, and our waiter rarely made appearances. He was big and easy.
This is a lovely detail.losthighway wrote: Sat Nov 23, 2024 11:02 am My daughter is playing "Twinkle, Twinkle" transposed into a minor key by ear on her keyboard and laughing. Is this what big truck dads feel when their son bombs a football 40 yards with a tight spiral?
