Heading to NOLA for a week

We were in NOLA for Mardi Gras but it was a whirlwind visit. We are heading back for a week during the kids' spring break to relax, visit family, and hit up some spots.
On the list of places that I haven't tried yet:
Toups Meatery
Peche
What are some other good options that have popped up in the past couple of years?

Root, Sylvain, Atchafalaya, Butcher, Rue 127
also consider La Petite Grocery if you've never been.

How old are the kids?

The kids will be hanging with the grandparents, so they are a non-issue.

Yes Otis. We used to live here, so I've been to most of the staples. Clancy's, all of the Brennan restaurants, August, Cochon, Bayona, GW Fins, Herbsaint, Gautreau's. I used to work in the CBD so have hit up most for lunch or dinner with the wife.
Just looking for some new suggestions.

Excellent strategy OP
Excellent start to a list.
R2R mentioned a few good ones. I would add Coquette, Boucherie, and Maya's.

Maya's looks super interesting. Been to Coquette and Boucherie. If I had to choose between Root and Toups, what would you pick?

Take the kids to High Hat Cafe. Get the pimento cheese/picked vegetable/deviled egg appetizer platter.

Root. No question in my mind.

Not even close.
As someone else stated, I find Toups inconsistent.
Posted on 3/26/14 at 10:37 pm to Boss
Coquette would make a nice date place. Toups is LEGIT.

I would actually suggest Crescent Pie over Toups. Especially with kids.

All I can suggest is pack heat. I've lived here most of my life (54 years). Tonight, I witnessed an armed robbery committed by a pack of kids, caught 3 of them, and had them on their knees, waiting for cops. Had 4 different people call 911 and after 90 mins, kids fled and cops never showed. I love my city, but currently, avoid it at all costs.
