Arzi’s on Nicholson.

My dad used to say "let's get some Greek & Lesbian food at Arzi's" and to this day, I have to stop before saying "Lebanese" to make sure I don't slip

I think there’s still a Semolinas in Metairie Mall- Macaroni cheesecake and Parmesan chicken salad were fantastic

Tex Mex restaurant circa 1999 on Tiger Bend and Jones Creek in that shopping center...




In that same center, Charles Alexander had a restaurant when he retired from the Bengals where Tuesday Morning is now.

I worked for an AC/Refrigeration repair guy and one his clients was Calendar’s. After being in that kitchen, there is no way in hell I would have eaten there. I’m surprise the State Board never shut them down.

There may have been. I don't remember. But I can't find many people that remember that Johnnys on Jefferson.
