re: Your last meal in N.O...

I left NOLA 2 weeks before Katrina to move to San Fran. For the life of me I can't recall what my last NOLA meal was. I knew I would be back often so I likely wasn't worried.
In hindsight, the thing that I miss the most is a GOOD shrimp poboy. I really can't find good french bread and thus its almost impossible for me to replicate a Louisiana Poboy. I make a decent gumbo, jambalaya, red beans, etc...but I've haven't yet learned to make good french bread.

Look for Julia Childs recipe for two loaves of bread, make it using bread flour. Let it sit by itself for twenty minutes, then divide into two loaves, roll it out in one direction to make the baguette shape, then let it sit for a few minutes and after shake it out from end to end to stretch the loaf(it shrinks up a bit from the gluten content), must find item a baguette pan(BB&B store), Let it rise for an hour in a warmish environment and shake it again, then this little trick, make slits(not very deep) across the loaf top at an angle to the center line. Now for the oven, place the pan on the upper rack, and throw a few drops of water on the bottom of the oven(it makes steam which is very important) and shut the oven door.
