Slurping wetly and noisily at the nourishment that is New Orleans
I had planned to post this meal a while ago, but you-know-what happened and it didn’t feel right. Yesterday, while scrolling though my Instagram feed, I noticed Café Degas is up and running once again, and I thought now was a good time to share my excellent brunch experience, the […]
Seeing as I adore all of the restaurant concepts created by LeBlanc + Smith, it took longer than I had hoped for me to finally try The Chloe. The boutique hotel, restaurant, and bar, located in a 19th century St. Charles Avenue mansion, opened in October of 2020, but every […]

Quite often, I can be almost too optimistic when it comes to dining experiences. I wave off inconveniences that would definitely have other diners reducing tips, taking their problems to the manager or worse, giving an ugly review on Yelp. But for me, if the food was incredible, I could […]
