In NOLA. Hi







What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    I tried my chai tea latte from starbucks with the new coconut milk they offer.  I don't think I'm a fan.

    I have a vodka and tonic, and since it's spring, I poured some lavender syrup in there. Cheers!

    Switched places. Dinner time. I'm alone so I'm making you eat with me

    Food was great. 

    Sadly  a sore throat has developed.      

    :sad:

    In NOLA. Hi

    That's my home turf!  I'm in bed with either the world's worst cold or the flu.  You win.  Hope that throat doesn't turn into anything.

    If you're still out, I highly recommend visiting French 75, the bar at Arnaud's (it's close to where you ate dinner).  Chris Hannah is the head bartender, he's a good friend of mine.  The signature cocktail, the French 75 is delicious.  The Erin Rose has the best Irish coffee (hot or frozen) in Nola and the grilled shrimp po-boy served out the back by Killer Po-Boys might be the best sandwich in New Orleans.  The Dauphine Hotel has a cool bar frequented by locals, called May Bailey's.  There's a pool outback you can dangle your feet in while you sip your cocktail.  

    I have eaten, drank, and danced all over that town. Feel free to PM me if you need any local-approved recommendations whatsoever.  I'm so jealous & wish I was there now!  We just moved to NYC full time from Nola in Feb. :(

    I actually lived in NOLA for a short time a few years ago.  I still work for a guy down here and come down twice a year or so.

    We use to take our dog in Erin Rose.  That and the Boondock Saint.

    I spent all night in the kitchen prepping St. Paddy's Day lunch for my office. Yep, I love my coworkers enough to spend 5+ hours making food for them.

    I'm laughing because it was 24 hours ago I posted this. I just walked into the same bar and logged onto the knot and boom @amelisha posts.

    Not feeling well. But I am of Irish decent and thought it was my duty to have a drink.

    Actually, I think they are contemplating creating a junior position in my office........

    Lunch was a rousing success. 8 of us destroyed a 4.5 lb corned beef, 3 lbs of colcannon, 2 lbs of carrots, and an enormous spinach salad with eggs, bacon, mushrooms, and a homemade sweet onion dressing.

    Hi - I'm watching CSI and getting ready for bed.

    SO jealous you're in NOLA. Enjoy the amazing weather, food, and drinks! I get to go (and meet my new niece) in May. :)
