re: If you had 3 last meals to Eat in New Orleans before you die?

That's a hard one. Nothing fancy for me for the last meals. Typical Nola fare would be on my list of lasts.

I'd go to brunch at Arnaud's for oysters arnaud and shrimp remoulade. If I think I can stand it, I'd probably have the trout amandine and some spinach. Maybe some caramel custard.

For lunch, I'd hit up Casamento's for fried oysters and a fried soft shell crab. Snoball from Hansen's for dessert.


I'd have the Gambino from Butcher for a mid afternoon snack.

Dinner would probably be crawfish bisque, crabmeat au gratin and bread pudding from Bon Ton.

Then, I'd try to figure out a way to have a snack of Mr. B's BBQ shrimp as late as possible and just before midnight, I'd slip in a shake and onion and potato omelet from Camellia Grill.

After that, I'm sure I'd die almost immediately and probably via a bodily implosion.

I'm full just typing all of that.
