Any recommendations?
Yeah, Bacchanal is still #1. Was just there a few weeks ago. How many days you have and what are you looking to accomplish. Also a big difference in recommendations if you're 30 and looking to get after it a bit or 50s and trying to relax and just have higher end experiences.Any recommendations?
Here until Friday. Did the walk down Bourbon yesterday. That’s enough. I can say I did it. Thinking French St?for clubs and music. We want creole food. Jacgues-imos closed until Wednesday. Definitely on the list. We are in the garden district on st CharlesYeah, Bacchanal is still #1. Was just there a few weeks ago. How many days you have and what are you looking to accomplish.

Today's Monday. Monday in Nola means Red Beans and Rice. Should be able to get it anywhere today. You're likely pretty close to Parasol's, great place for a Po'boy and a couple drinks. Nice little brewery called Miel that is a few mins walk from Parasol's as well. Always a good food truck outside of there.Here until Friday. Did the walk down Bourbon yesterday. That’s enough.

Frenchman should have live jazz at multiple clubs every night though there was a bunch of construction going on down there last month.
Did Mahonys for lunch. Solid recommendation. ThanksHit up Domilise's Po Boys (and bar) at 5240 Annunciation St. (no, you will not be shot when you walk in...) or Mahoney's Po Boys at 3454 Magazine St.
For a sit down dinner check out Frankie and Johnny's at 321 Arabella St. Get the pepper rings and crab cakes. order a sazerac or vieux carre cocktail. Life is good...
Believe you can see Kermit Ruffins tomorrow at his place. Would be a high recommendation for the Jazz experience.Did Mahonys for lunch. Solid Po boy and gumbo. At the French Market now. Wander over to Frenchman and see whats going on later

Saw TBC brass band ant Spotted Cat about 13 years ago and they killed it.Frenchman Street has great music. I enjoyed the Spotted Cat. I also did a historic walking cocktail tour. I’m a history teacher and an amateur alcoholic so it was right up my alley.
We are staying right beside the Ponchetrain. Will check it out! ThanksIf you’re venturing out to the Garden District at all there’s a gorgeous rooftop bar inside the Ponchartrain Hotel called Hot Tin with a panoramic view that your wife will love. If you go into the lobby take the elevator all the way to the right (it’s the only one that goes all the way up to the bar).
The bar on the first floor of the hotel is where the Saints were founded and occasionally has live jazz music as well. I love that neighborhood so much. Make a trek over to Turkey and the Wolf for lunch some day, too.We are staying right beside the Ponchetrain. Will check it out! Thanks
Did thatYeah it's trite, but take one of the open air tour busses.
