Pretty sure I have this figured out by a long shot...

It's the Swizzle Stick Bar, part of Cafe Adelaide inside of the Loews Hotel.

Can't go wrong. You'll thank me later if you are going.

ETA: By cocktails, I'm not talking simple mixed drinks. I mean highly complex concoctions prepared by knowledgeable bartenders. You'll be impressed.

If they still have that snowball concoction on the menu, steer clear of it.

I've heard really good things about this joint.

Long time no see, btw. Let's get an LSU baseball tailgate set up early this season.

Other than that one bad drink, Swizzle is good. They are taking the bartender from there to help open the new place in the old Bacco's.

Please, be more condescending. None of us have ever been to a mixology bar.

Here is a sleeper. Maurepas foods in bywater. Great restaurant too.

Agreed. Cocktails are very good and creative. Goat tacos are fantastic. Inexpensive too.

I can't wait!

I do look forward to the boil every season. May ask "the tank" if we can do two over the season. that'd be something. Season starts in less than two weeks if I recall.

Goat tacos are $7. Really good and beyond reasonable.

Usually there aren't too many hipsters, which gives me a big sigh of relief!
