What are the odds of a rental car smash and grab Friday at lunch time?

Is it still a 30 min shuttle ride with Laquondra to the rental car place?

The airport setup there sucks

Also, why lunch in the FQ where there are infinitely better options all around the city?

I am headed to Natchez and all ears on lunch suggestions. Have time to kill. I am in New Jersey and person I meeting is in Texas so trying to get lunch we can't get at home.

Was going to do Middendorfs but this week events I don't know

It'd probably be cheaper/quicker to taxi/Uber/Lyft to the Quarter and back than to pay for a rental.

Dragos in Metairie is really good. Or used to be, a lot of places changed after the China bug. Kenner Seafood on Loyola and near the airport is good too. I And Seithers Seafood in Harahan is popular.

Dragos has always sucked. They have one GREAT dish, their charbroiled oysters, the rest of their menu is pretty trash.

Seithers is actually pretty good, I will agree.

Stay out of the 1/4…go to Cafe Degas or another French restaurant.

There is absolutely no reason to go eat in the quarter if you are just going for a quick lunch and are heading out to an opposite direction after. In addition to generally average restaurants that’s you will pay more for, you will have to pay to park.

Post a real thread on the Food board asking for some specifics on what you are looking for.
