I went to Borgne a couple weeks ago. I had the oyster spaghetti which was simple but very well done. The duck poppers were definitely a must. Someone at the table orded the stuffed flounder and she pretty much devoured the whole thing. I guess that is a good sign? [img]http://i1069.photobu...

Such thing as a 3 hour Osso Bucco?

Posted by TheOtherOne on 1/10/12 at 9:58 am
Is it possible to make a really good Osso Bucco in less time than 6-8 hours? I have a slow cooker and want to experiment on a 3-4 hour version of Osso Bucco. Anyone have any suggestions/recipes I could play with? TIA...

To get off burgers ad back onto the thread, I agree with most of these. As some people mentioned, Ruby Slipper, Katie's and Venezia's should be on here. OP mentioned Cafe NOMA was D Brennen, it's Ralph Brennan. I grew up on the same block as Mandina's and now live 2 blocks away. The food is...

I'm at the Bulldog in Mid-City a lot. I got at least once a week. I walk my dog over there and when it isn't crowded they occasionally let me go in the back patio and close the gate and let him run around. I live closer to Finn's and I know I can bring my dog there (I have a couple of times),...

re: Best thin crust pizza in Nola?

Thye LA Pizza Kitchen on Carrollton is still open. I ate there about a month ago. My vote is the POTA at Theo's as best pizza though. Had Slice Monday. Better topping selection there, but the crust is better at Theo's....

Voted. I will probably be doing this all day now....
I bought it from Rouses for Endymion last year. It was pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it again. It's definitely a fun novelty to fool around with. And yes, it was a lot more potent than you would expect....
Brunch at Bouche.... No clue what I'm having, but I'm sure Bloody Marys will be involved....

Apple Hubig Pie is #1 :dude: Anyone hear about the blueberry? Oh, and McDonald's breakfast always makes me want to vomit not matter what I get. I would rather go hungry....

Went for lunch today. Pretty much a combo of all the other RBRG restaurant items with a couple new things that will probably be at Cafe B. It was fast and very well priced. I think it's a good replacement. ...

I see you either like them on facebook or follow them on Twitter. It's been up all day....
I'm getting a ride. Rivershack it is :nana:...
Yea, but I was planning on walking. I figure Oak St. Cafe serves it, but I go there all the time and don't remember seeing a red bean special. Then again, I probably don't go on Monday's very often......
