James Beard Award-Winning
Restaurants in New Orleans



So, only two winners of Outstanding Restaurant, compared to Birmingham's one?

Sounds like a cripple fight. Especially compared to a real food city like New York or San Francisco.

Its a great outdoor city. Mountains/hiking, golf, fishing, etc. Theres a reason Jim Henderson does an ad for people staying in the area to play golf.. plenty of people in Louisiana enjoy that stuff.

Not to mention there's tons of sporting events in Birmingham that draw people in all year round. Barber's and Talladega attract people globally, and the golf is world class like you said.

Clearly, you cannot read. There are two New Orleans establishments that have been named Outstanding Restaurant. Commander's Palace and Galatoire's.

Dumbfrick.

Frank’s wife Pardis can get fricked. That bitch is batshit fricking crazy.

Edit: as someone who spent an unfortunate 8 months working for one of their restaurants, I wouldn’t set foot in any of them with a gun to my head. Bar none the most overrated food I’ve ever tasted. Absolutely the shitiest employees I’ve ever worked with. Even found out months later from a former employee that a manager was actively spying on me at my other job by calling regularly to see if I was working. frick that entire organization

Yeah, Highlands is a nice place. But N.O. has a dozen or more places that are better.
