New Orleans Restaurant List for the Next Week

Headed back with a small group. The restaurants have already been chosen so no need to suggest others or criticize the selection. That's a done deal. Some we've been to and some we have not. Menu suggestions are welcome.
Peche-dinner-first time
Casamento's-lunch-been there many times so no suggestions needed.
Irene's-dinner-first time
R'evolution brunch/lunch-first time
Tujague's dinner-first time and doubt anyone will order brisket
Domenica lunch-been there multiple times, so haven't tried everything
I've collected thoughts from some other threads, but figured I'd ask anyway. We have reservations for all but Casamento's, obviously.

Everything I ordered in my review thread. That's my suggestion. And please save room for that salted caramel cake at the the end... Sweet baby Jesus.
I'll be back this weekend. I may try to get a spot at the bar just for that cake.

Of course not, but I can then chastise those who choose to disobey. I could probably predict who that will be.

Hell no! I can't afford you, Mr. Balls, and I'm not paying for any of these meals, fortunately, or I'd be looking for the loan.

That's what I'd like to do, but I don't think all the others will cooperate. I'm pushing for lots of small plates, though.
I'm not a cake person, but that salted caramel cake looked and sounded so good that I'm thinking of making an exception.

Looks like a helluva time. We're going down in a couple weeks but won't be doing it near that style. We are doing some Commanders Palace lunch/ kitchen tour thing and hopefully hitting Peche.

Great line-up. Did talk the group into going to Peche Tues night. It is simply fantastic. Will probably be the highlight of the places you have listed (but, not that there is a real shabby one on it, with the possibility of R'evolution).

The Commander's deal is probably going to be great! I saw that Tory added a lot of new lunch dishes to the menu that look very good. I had a difficult time not including it. Brunch there last Easter was terrific. I still haven't made the dirty grits we had, but I'm going to. I thought that was a brilliant dish and I'm surprised I haven't seen it elsewhere on menus. I could have eaten it as a main course and been very happy with a little side of the black pepper bacon.

How about a review of your meal at Peche or did I miss it?

Only thing I can think to add is Alon may still have his Passover menu next week. I had it last year and some things were pretty good.
Not a suggestion, but if you're traveling with some hebrews they may like to know.

He had that menu last year when we were there, as well. Commander's has one also. I was tempted to try it at Domenica, but at the time, it was my first visit there.
I go to friends' home for a Seder every year and they sent me home with leftover matzo ball soup Monday night which I had for lunch today. I love the stuff. I'm Catholic, but I love the traditional foods served at the Seder. However, they don't follow all the rules. After the readings and the traditional foods, we had lasagna, salad, homemade biscuits and cheesecake. Most of the attendees weren't Jewish, anyway.

I think I'm going to have to have the crawfish bisque. I love a good one. I realize this one doesn't have the stuffed heads, but it looked dark and rich.

We've already had quite a few on here, so I figured it would just be background noise. But, we did the smoked tuna dip, royal reds, crawfish bisque, brabant potatoes (yeah, there's one yahoo in every crowd), and whole grilled redfish. Potatoes were the only semi-weak spot, but probably due to the magnificence of the rest of the food. Would highly recommend all of it (minus the damn potatoes).
Also, Anderson of the TP just reviewed the place and gave it 4 beans: LINK
