I'm thinking of it this way...

If I had only one city to dine in for the rest of my life and money is no object, it would be hard to rule out Las Vegas as number one for me. I'd have everything at my fingertips.

To answer the OP's question, New Orleans has some of the best local resources, but lacks in ethnic diversity that the bigger cities have going for them, but it would still be in the top 5 for me.

I think the gulf resources is a big deal but I agree when you look at bigger cities and the diversity it's pretty big difference, I'd not say Vegas though as they have to import all their resources. I would give a nod to SF, just to hang out at The French Laundry.

The obvouis NY, Chicago, they have their own ethnic neighborhoods. N.O. can't compete with that.

That said we ate at Irene's last night before they closed and man it was so good. So good, even with a hour and a half wait.

I call bullshite on this "New Orleans doesnt have ethnic food" argument. Are we missing say a volume of Korean restaurants, sure but we have a great one in Korea House. And the vast number of Vietnamese spots is something to behold. So really what etnic food are we missing?

Dollar for dollar, I think New Orleans is the best restaurant city in America and has a better indigenous food culture than any other place in the argumentative analysis.
