Alabama and Ole Miss are absolutely kicking our arse with attracting upper middle class to upper class kids from Louisiana right now….its an arse-whipping


This is nothing new though… well off kids whose parents could afford out of state tuition have been going to ole miss and Alabama for decades. I think part is just going away for college but also the Greek system at those schools

While they have some very good restaurants listed, it’s 100% a DEI prioritized list. Some very good “locally” famous restaurants not represented
That’s the best truck you’ve ever seen? It looks like a Honda ridgeline
The wife will prob want a Christmas cookie martini instead at Roosevelt.

The Reuben at Luizzas by the track is great for Nola. Parkway, Steins, and Martins are all good.

However, you will not find anything “comparable” to Katz’s or other NYC staples.
It appears everyone loves the rose and cucumber taste of Hendricks.. which I do as well but I prefer London dry style more w heavy juniper and citrus. My favorite is Plymouth but very close second is Sipsmith. I like beefeater and Bombay sapphire as well. Besides G&T’s, I love negroni’s, gin w Topo(similar to gin Rickey), and brambles
Or the slapping/throwing of every ingredient in the sandwich to make a fruit ninja noise. It annoys the frick out of me

His name is Adolfo Garcia III lol.
fwiw it’s also owned by Adolfo Garcia’s son. The chef of La Boca who went full retard during Covid.
I too went in looking for stuff to make homemade pizzas. (Fresh mozz, 00 flour, pepperoni, San marzano tomato’s, etc). They had none to very limited options. I was pretty disappointed for an Italian specialty store… the muff is pretty good but they need to focus more on the grocery side if they are going to claim that imo
Cha-Ching!
