re: Opinion on Andreas in Metairie?

I don't think Andrea ever "mailed it in" per se, I think he fell into the trap that you see some foreign born well trained chefs fall into in America. They see the opportunity to diversify what they can do, and they go overboard.
Oh, I can make 10+ more special menus a year and offer even more kinds of food? Great!
Oh I can expand my restaurant and offer a tacky looking piano bar next to my restaurant? Great!
Andrea needs a smack on the head and a voice in his ear screaming, LESS IS MORE! A Northern Italian trained chef as much as anyone should know this. But every time he finds something new to cook that isn't in his normal range, and every gimmick he adds on to his restaurant, he thinks they are all important notches in his belt. Even if the quality isn't there.

He's waiting to take a first date there.
I just need to find a friend willing to go.
ETA: I just checked my Groupon account and had forgotten that I bought 2 3-day passes to Voodoo Fest for only $154

What other coupon sites are there?
I just checked my Groupon, BargainBee, and LivingSocial and cannot find my Andrea's coupon. I can't remember who I bought it through.
