Chef, be careful of your words. Such callous remarks can come back to haunt you. If someone you hold dear should die - for any reason, thoughtless words would be cruel and unnecessary. Not to mention the business you will lose. Apparently you have taken care of that. We will never darken your door again.

He is getting to be a handful, and she corrects him often. I used to feel sorry for Tom, but it must be quite a challenge to keep an eye on him 24/7. It's a pitiful situation

I share your love for Crozier's. If there was one restaurant I could bring back, it would be Crozier's. Their original location was not on Read Lane, it was on Lake Forest Boulevard in a small strip mall. It was a single, narrow storefront. I don't remember how we found it, but in 1976, it was our favorite Saturday night date. His fish soup was only served on Saturday night. It was a strong flavored broth that I learned to love. I still crave that soup and all his dishes. Dover Sole, Veal Francois,Veal al La Crozier, and the Tournedos Gerard....and perfect rice. It will forever be my most missed restaurant. It holds many special memories.

I'm reminded about Johnny Carson who said he wanted to leave the Tonight Show was he was still at the top of his game; and he did. Mary Ann should have let Tom do the same instead of sitting him in front of a microphone when he can't put two coherent sentences together. Now this is how he will be remembered. Doesn't she realize how much she has to prompt him to complete a thought? It's an embarrassment. Yes, she should be ashamed. Their ramblings together with the amateur sound quality makes me think I'm listening to a skit on the old Saturday Night Live. Only it's real.

On Twitter #nolaopen. Get source of menus, specials, hours. Stay local!

He's missing quite a lot. Ian McNulty - Where NOLA Eats on Facebook has recent updates with restaurants and employees posting their hours and menus. Also, check out your favorite restaurants' FB pages, and give them a thumbs up in support. Share their pages. Post feedback. Check out the restaurant's web site. Call them so they know they are not forgotten.
Spread the word from these sources. Its a lot more up to date, and factual and informative than Tom's family operation.

It can only add to the flavor. You could add an envelope of dry Lipton chicken soup for flavor - or a packet of chicken gravy to thicken it some. Whenever I cook a brisket, I add a chicken gravy. It doesn't change the flavor, just adds to it. Never settle for cheap, store brand broths or gravies; they are tasteless. What are some good chicken broths out there?

Brady's. Post where you ended up and if you liked it.

Don't like debris roast beef on a po boy. That is what Parkway serves.

Toyota Sequoia has great ratings and I haven't had any trouble with mine. Would get Sequoia again. Loved my Suburban, but it was not very dependable.
