New Orleans is a foodie city and we eat out quite a bit. It helps us give good recommendations when our out-of-town visitors ask us where they should eat. Here’s some photo evidence of our culinary adventures this past week or so.

We’d heard good things about the happy hour at Blind Pelican. Raw oysters are 25 cents. A dozen chargrilled oysters were $7 or so. We prefer Drago’s version (more butter, garlic, cheese instead of garlic, butter & bread crumbs).
