It's been a while, since I was last in New Orleans, but two very special places remain in my memories. Number one, Commanders Palace, located in the Garden District, and the other was the back room of Antoine's (which I was told by some natives was much different from the front part of the establishment in which the tourists are usually seated) JDB From [email removed] Thu Dec 15 20:21:00 1994 >Received: by mintir.new-orleans.la.us (1.65/waf) via UUCP; Thu, 15 Dec 94 17:46:01 CST Sender: [email removed] To: "New Orleans Mailing List" Reply-To: "New Orleans Mailing List" Organization: Minas Tirith BBS (Public Access Usenet for New Orleans) Subject: Re: Re: Re: muffalettas X-Mailserver: Waffle File Server (WFS), Release 3.0.2 X-Article: 63 Content-Type: text Content-Length: 1475 > >Oh man, I haven't had a good muffaletta in ages.

It's a little Italian place, and they serve a great cannoli, >too... Maybe it's Luizza's? (I don't recognize that name) You're most likely remembering Angelo Brocato's here. Originally on Ursulines Street, Brocato's is now in the Lower Pontalba apartment building facing Jackson Square. I'm no world-wide expert on cannolis, but I'd bet that Brocato's stack up against anything you can get in the Little Italy section of any city in the US that has such a neighborhood. I'm a sucker for Brocato's cannoli. Just thinking about 'em makes me want to go down there and get one. I've got to hit some downtown clients tomorrow, so I think I'll go early, get the all-day rate at the Pere Marquette garage on Common, and walk over to the Quarters after I finish up. |Edward J.

Other than one lunch place in the CBD, I draw a blank. I put the question to Tom Fitzmorris on his radio show last year, and we came up with a few regular restaurants that probably can accomodate veggie-types, but he didn't know of any full-blown veggie restaurants, either. I'm posting the full text of the original news article, and my reply. If you've got any other ideas here, let's hear 'em, and I'll put together a list for the archives. To: [email removed]
