And what about lucky dogs? And other street food vendors?

What's wrong with having competition?


there's one thing that certainly needs to change .. the monopoly that Lucky Dogs has on permits to operate in the FQ. nobody else can move in on them. even if they just offered 10 more permits for food trucks/carts other than Lucky Dog that would dramatically alter the landscape. the FQ is probably one of the top neighborhoods in the country for quick, to-go food. locals and tourists would go nuts over having multiple options for a quick bite so they could eat while walking and continue exploring the area.

Nonsense. We can't have actual free market capitalism in New Orleans!
