other than that, it's a great place to visit.


It kind of is though. 10 million people visited the place last year.
Next year is the city's 300 hundred year celebration and I bet they go over 11 million.

From October through May, check out the hotel occupancy rates, etc and it will tell you all you need to know.
Last weekend was a damn near full city and this weekend it will be full up.
There is a reason why it's been the #1 destination city for weddings for five years now.

The 6 out of town visitors I had dinner with Saturday night sure as hell enjoyed the place.

This.
New Orleans IS the greatest city in the country - we've just allowed it to go to shite. I often dream about what an incredible place this city could be.

Not going to lie - it's a slow day at the office, so the entertainment is appreciated.

I was content to sit back and watch the bickering until you called me out.

New Orleans should be high on a travel and leisure list, I've never said anything against that. My issue is with the thought of living there, not visiting.


agree 100%. possibly the most unique city in America, and should easily be considered as one of the top 5 American cities for everyone to visit. however, i'd never dream of living there.

New orleans is the complete opposite of los angeles. Living in Los Angeles is great, but i have no clue why anyone would want to vacation here.

Finally, someone who's concerned about the right things: my well being.

Thanks, SS. I knew you were one of the good ones.

Glad you enjoyed.

I do get spoiled being able to pop by on my way home from work whenever the fridge is getting empty. Coming into LA for a wedding this week, going to try to get out to Parish to check some beers out. The tap list is looking pretty light right now though.

Trillium and Parish are pretty similar

I was at Parish Friday, Ghost is on tap as well as DDX2 Envie and the new Jameson barrel aged coffee stout

Link? Yeah, i didnt think so.


Live here, own a business, and get endless resumes from young people that move here from all over. Yes, young and educated. It's especially noticeable since Katrina.

Not sure how to link that, but you being so certain that's not happening is pretty funny.

America has only three great cities: New York, San Francisco, and New Orleans. Everywhere else is Cleveland.
