We’re eating our way through New Orleans. Venues this week included Booty’s, Salu, Lucky Rooster, Middendorf’s and P’s and Q’s. Check out our full post on Storify.
We started last week at Booty’s Street Food (@Bootys). The Bywater restaurant is doing a weekly menu around a specific country. Last week it was Singapore and Booty’s tweeted the magic words: Hainanese chicken rice.
