re: Looking For Good Coffee Recs - Crescent Connection
[link=(https://frenchtruckcoffee.com/)]LINK[/link] French Truck coffee. Had brunch at Toast in New Orleans maybe 10 years ago, and they were serving this. It was so much better than any cup of coffee I ever had, that I asked the server what roaster it was. It's our weekend coffee as it is mor...

re: Cafe Sydnie Mae Breaux Bridge - Crescent Connection
Dinner was fantastic. Got a cup of the seafood gumbo (wish I had gotten the bowl), wife got a salad, split the Breaux bread with marinara (so good), she got the filet and I got the pork chop. Pork chop lived up to expectations. It was like cutting through butter...very tender and flavorful. Loved t...

re: What is a chain restaurant that you would like actually like to see in your city? - Crescent Connection
PF Chang's in Lafayette. There isn't really a decent Chinese/Asian restaurant over here. We use to go to the one by Lakeside Mall in Metairie all the time pre-Katrina. They would kill it on Ambassador Caffery. Haven't been to one probably in over 10 years....

re: Who else’s wife jumps the gun on taking kids to the doc? - Crescent Connection
I work as an RN and my wife is a dental hygienist, so we collectively have more medical knowledge than the general public. With that being said, my wife is quicker than I to bring any one of our 4 kids to the pediatrician. She’s on the same page as me with fevers (2 of our kids will get or has ...

re: Video: Teedy flips off a Krewe of Tucks float - Crescent Connection
She’s a fricking piece of shite. Absolutely the lowest form of life inhabiting this earth. But Nola deserves her as much as I hate to say it. Too many fricking rich old-Nola democrats voted for her purely on affiliation. I hope some of her voters woke up to the lunacy they continue to vote into off...

re: Quality of Perlis stuff has gone to shit - Crescent Connection
Rhoback really is the ultimate polo. It’s pricey, but they fit remarkably well and are breathable. It feels like you’re wearing a 20lb terry cloth with the Perlis polos. Definitely need to size down with them. Haven’t bought one in about 10 years. ...

re: Has anyone been to Avo recently? - Crescent Connection
Went Saturday night. It was a top 3 meal for me in recent memory. Started with the charred octopus and Caesar salad. I love how they crumble the croutons so you're not biting into a hard square. The octopus was different, but tasty. Really meaty. Wife had the gulf fish and I had the veal par...
