Just saw it's Coolinary. Figure we'd try to get in 2-3 places.
We always seem to pick the worst selections for these though. Antoine's, Pelican Club, Flaming Torch, all meh.

Hoping three are a few must try things. A lot of participants this time.

as it happens I had the coolinary menu at the bon ton last night, hadn’t been there in 20 yrs at least. If you like the bon ton, it’s a great value

It’s not NOLA but I thought the Pepper Mill deal was pretty good

Did upperline last night. 3 courses $39

Everything was good. They have more app & entree options for coolinary than most menus I looked at.

I used the Coolinary $20 lunch as an excuse to try Brown Butter. Didn’t expect too much, and I was pleasantly surprised. The chilled corn soup was a standout.

Pelican Club is usually one of my favorites. I had the one at Commander's Palace last week (mushroom ravioli and seafood stew) and it was very good.

I did August a couple of weeks ago and it was great. You don't have any options, but I thought the chosen items were delicious. They usually only participate in Restaurant Week (which I'm missing this year), not the full month for Coolinary, so I was happy.

Last year I did Avo, and I highly recommend it as well.
