re: Sit down dinner for about 175 people in the French Quarter....

Sonesta, that way you can get absultely obliterated at the event, then stroll out the front door and hit up Pat O's and continue to get annihalated, then you can stroll down the block to Rick's and get even more fricked up, then when you wake up lying in a puddle of urine and puke at 4-5 am you can head back down the street to the Sonesta to the room you booked for yourself to sleep off the wonderful night. or eat brunch.
