re: Looking for places to eat in N.O./Metro Area that most people do not know about?

Ha I've lived here my whole life, granted it hasn't been that long of one, and there are plenty of places in this thread I have never been to. In a place like NOLA you have to remind yourself that your insert regular spot isn't always the answer.

Just some random places I enjoy but aren't listed

Cafe Ninos- dumpy spot, but solid pizza and if you're craving sloppy italian that's pretty good. Cash only.

Adams St Po Boys- Big po boy's for the cheap and they are solid. A to go place.

Crabby Jacks- One of my favorite po boy spots, they give you a lot of whatever you order.

R &Os- Solid food all around.

Radostas- In Old Met but they are worth a try, Po Boys. I'm partial to Joan's or Wayne's Special.
Casementos- Next to Ms Maes on Magazine. Best fried seafood I've had here. Cash only.

Buds broiler....Haha I enoy their burgers but a lot of people will hate on them, go once if you haven't been. I recommend the #4 with sauce and double patties then get an extra sauce on the side for your chili cheese fries...I fricking love that sauce if you can't tell. They have a few locations around the city, Calhoun/claiborne, Mid City.

Higher End Spots:

Clancys- By the park uptown, great food can't go wrong.
Brigtsens, Dantes Kitchen- Both are are by Camelia Grill.

If someone doesn't hit something I think of I will update later.
