Which accent? There’s at least 5 different variations. Yat? Uptown? Gentilly? 9th ward? Maybe try returning more frequently than every 20 years to decide if a “New Orleans” accent is still alive and well? I’ve lived there for quite a spell (not a native) and I can say positively and thankfully “yes”. Love how this board loves to shite on NOLA but the second you leave the state and people ask “where are you from” the answer is “New Orleans”.
Just go ahead and move. I’ve been all over this nation and world and … newsflash … nowhere is perfect! This state has enough negativity already. If all you want to do is be an internet badass and OT Baller wanna be, just pick up your crap and leave. We don’t need your energy. I’ll stay and be part of the solution. Let us know when it’s good enough for you to move back.
Use mine often - great strong cup - seems to be higher in caffine IMO

Roux 61 is solid and consistent - can be very busy though

Magnolia is good with great location
Emeril's is a decent value at lunch
Boil & Roux on Coursey near Sherwood Forest Blvd (old Portico / old Calendar's)

Gonna be in NOLA next week - any suggestions for a good CFS?

Should you happen to have rendered pork fat to serve as the base for the white gravy, I would certainly recommend using it. Praise to the Lard!!!!

I will say the Southside Cafe in Slidell, LA has quite possibly the best Chicken Fried Steak (CFS) in the State. While I do appreciate brown gravy with other beef dishes (hamburger steak, pot roast, etc.) I find that the delicate breading of the properly prepared CFS is best enjoyed with a blonde roux based white gravy, preferably made using cream and salted butter. Really, it should be a bechemel heavily seasoned with cracked black pepper and perhaps a smidge of red pepper and certainly salt to bring forth the flavors.

re: Houston Nutt to LSU?

So Saban knows nothing about coaches? I seem to recall that Nutt routinely made the Friday after thanksgiving pretty miserable for Nick at LSU ....

Houston Nutt to LSU?

Posted by FoulesFan on 11/7/11 at 11:16 pm
as an assistant coach? Recruiting coordinator? I know he had Saban's endorsement as H/C when he left LSU. Thoughts?

Maybe he could help with clock management - keep track of time outs, etc.
That LSU picks him up as an assistant?
