It's going to be called Rotolo's Crust and Craft or something like that. No, it's not open yet.

So, for the most part no. A simple sign or warning from the owner of a property can do nothing but get you a ticket for leaving the property.
I don't really understand what that last post with the quote means. This is from a lawyer, and these laws are specific to at least BR, but most places have laws that are very similar.

In response to requests for information about what is an illegal tow, please note these examples:
The towing law requires that, before vehicles are towed without the owner’s consent, the property owner must post signs that specifically warn that “unauthorized vehicles” may be towed. Riverside’s standard signs do not warn that “unauthorized vehicles” might be towed. If the signs do not comply, the tow is illegal and also a violation of criminal law.
The towing law requires that, before authorizing the tow of as vehicle from its property without the owner’s consent, a property owner must post specific signs that display the towing company’s name printed in 2” inch letters. Riverside’s signs did not comply. They have fixed the size of the type on some signs with overlays, but of the retrofitted signs I have seen, none of them meet the requirements of the law, even after the changes.
The statute requires signs or markings for specific parking areas that may be subject to towing. Riverside has violated this law.
The towing law requires that the mandated signs be clearly visible at all entrances and exits. Riverside rarely, if ever, posts signs visible from exits.
The towing law requires that the towing company operator ensure that all of the signage requirements of the towing statute are complied with before towing any vehicle. Riverside Towing has not complied with this provision.
The towing law requires a written contract between the property owner and towing company stating the rules for parking and the reasons for towing. Riverside’s standard contract does not even mention any reasons for towing. I have never seen a Riverside contract that, in my opinion, complies with the statute.
The towing law requires that the contract between the property owner and the towing company be signed by both parties. I have seen contracts that were not signed by Riverside, but which had a "signature stamp” instead.
The tow ticket must identify the property owner, state certain times such as the time of dispatch and drop off, and the name of the driver, and other information. I have reviewed many Riverside Tow tickets. I have never seen one that contained the information required by law.
The law requires that the tow truck drivers wear uniforms with their names on them.
The law also provides: “Any tow truck operator who fails to comply with the provisions of this Section, who fails to provide a billing invoice which contains the information required by this Section to the redeemer of the motor vehicle, or who tows a vehicle in violation of this Section shall be in violation of the provisions of R.S. 14:68.4 and shall be subject to any applicable penalty prescribed by law, including but not limited to the revocation of the towing license. Lack of knowledge of the conduct of a tow truck company employee shall not be a defense for the tow truck company owner.”
No, no matter what anyone says it is not legal. In order to enforce towing you have minimum requirements on what must be posted and how often it must be posted based on the size of your lot. It must state, at minimum, that towing is enforced, the address, name and telephone number of the towing company and the minimum fee charged for towing. At least in BR, and most places have something similar in effect.

Get a beer delivery guy to save you the card board flats from cases of beer.

Not headed downtown, midcity. Right next to the dive shop next to superior.
They've got a great selection, but that sounds like they might be competing.

Better selection than Cosmos? I find that hard to believe.

I think the fact of the matter is this, he owns the building the sign is attached to. If I buy a house with a billboard built on the property, I can make them remove it from my property. If someone puts up something on my property and doesn't have my permission (art work, graffiti, an ad) I can cover it up and make the person pay to have it removed. Or I can cover it up and ask the owner to pay me for right to use my property. Doesn't matter if he owns the sign or not, he has the right to tell them that they can't display the sign there without paying him for the use of his property.
I use them, but I think it is in bad form to blow clouds in a place that doesn't allow smoking. I'll pull mine out in a restaurant, but I only stealth vape. I hold in the vapor for longer than usual and only exhale a small amount of vapor. You'd have to be looking for it to see it. I think people who use e cigs need to be respectful of others.
Red Lobster is dying because people want better quality food and people would rather spend their money at a locally owned place, than a chain. I don't even understand the reasoning behind opening one in South LA. Our seafood tastes are geared toward gulf seafood, not northern seafood.

The difference in a great steak restaurant not cooking well done steak and this is place, is that the steak restaurant isn't on the verge of closing down. I understand the plight of saying that people "shouldn't" mess with this style of pizza. But it's hurting business. If he's offering the signature pies, you can still enjoy them by design. However, his unwillingness to alter his pizzas is going to cost him his business. He can be "right" all he wants he needs the customer's money more than the customers are demanding his style of pizza at the moment.

The " meh" beer itself was a comical idea. The idea was that people kept asking Rouge to so collaborative brews, and he kept saying no. So as a joke the owner decided to do a collaborative brew, but with a doughnut shop instead of another brewery.

Don't know if it's the best, but the chicken at Leroy's is pretty darn good. It's worth a try.
It's priced much better than your standard Greek prices, think lunch menu pricing. Plus they have many more options for sides than you normally get at your standard Greek place. Quality is the same as your standard Serops.

I understand it's far easier to get imports than it is to get beers from other states. Probably something to do with the importers and licensing. We can get practically any import we want in Louisiana but don't get some of the bigger craft breweries.


This has more to do with production capacity. Lots of US craft brewers simply don't have to capacity to move into every state. If you've decided to start importing, you've got enough productions to supply all 50 states.
