To have lufu and not saffron Nola is a joke. Lufu is a decent lunch place that’s second best item is the wings. The briyani is not as good as Taj Mahal’s. It also has no ambience(in the old halal guys location) and below average service.

Also lack of dynamic pass rushers hurt. Gooden injury, reliford and butler in addition to Whit’s injury came at worse time. Baker is solid - not great.

Not missing much at Il Supremo. Not as good lately/ not in same league as others. The a la vodka pasta is some of the blandest I’ve ever had.

It was against byu in the superdome

This is a great list. For wine shop (not bar) I would add Keife & Co on Carondelet and Howard. They might have tastings for the event. Single ladies of age range you mention, try the Polo Lounge at Windsor Court. The mayor is in France so she won’t be there.

You are absolutely correct Rizzuto’s sucks. Went there recently on a weeknight - red sauce was burnt, thin and cheap tasting. R&O’s has better sauce on its chicken Parmesan poboy. The beet salad I had was one of my worse dishes in recent memory. Had been prepared days in advance and refrigerated. The steens vinagrette was the consistency of slime.

Gianna and Paladar have nicest atmosphere and best drinks. If you like Amaro or would like to try Gianna’s selection might be the best outside of NYC and Italy. Get the special Amaro menu. Avo used to be in our rotation for quality, but it hasn’t been as good lately. Atmosphere is not as nice for special occasion.

Osteria Lupo is fun with good drinks, but only 2 pasta dishes are good - mushroom and squid ink. The ravioli, gnocchi and apps are not good at all.

Not a fan of Tana. Some decent dishes, some not, but vibe is cheesy Miami and service not as professional.

The world economy, of which America is the leader, cannot be managed like a casino deal in Atlantic City. It’s one thing to bully and bluff lenders and the GC into a better deal. It’s another to deal with the Chinese who in my experience are uber capitalistic despite being communist. We look like a joke.

I do believe Lutnick and Bressent are talented, capable people who should take the lead in tariff negotiations going forward. I also agree with Elon that Navarro is dumber than a sack of bricks and should be made the fall guy of this mess.

It really is an excellent program and an enjoyable law school experience that does place top students in big law jobs. In fact NYC and Houston /Dallas are allowed to interview top students weeks before Louisiana firms are allowed on campus to interview. Below is a link to the upcoming sports and entertainment law conference at Tulane. Your kid should attend, if possible.

Anyone have experience with Southern Timepiece in Metairie? They claim to have the largest pre-owned Rolex selection in Louisiana. Their on-line inventory does seem extensive.
