Well, have it sort of figured out. One thing, we are going to have pretty much all day in NOLA when we get back before catching a flight.

I made reservations at Murial’s for brunch. The have live music, and I figure we can easily kill a few hours there. Thanks all.

Watch out for the parades that day. It is the last Sunday before Mardi Gras, so expect some crowds.

I came in to say “go to Irene’s and order the meuniere amandine”. Too late, though.

The etoufee at Antoine’s in the French Quarter was very, very good when I had it in Jan. 2001. I haven’t had the chance to go back since, alas.
