Caught the post about the folk behind Debbie Does Doberge taking over the old Eleven 79 space and it got me to wondering - who does the best doberge cake in New Orleans. I've had the doberge bites at 12 Mile LImit - and they were good but I still need to try just a regular slice to get the proper...

Bark closed for good a few weeks ago....

Friends of ours used to live in that stretch across from an old Sinatra rib joint haunt, The Twin Anchors - which has a surprising gruff charm.
