Mile Hi - New Things

NOLA  - October 2018 The Old Coffeepot Restaurant (714 St Peter St, New Orleans LA 70116) - Coffee Pot Calas & Grits and Eggs Sardou. The calas were different but good, eggs benedict was great! Nice ambiance in the courtyard area.

NOLA  - October 2018 PJ's Coffee  (5432 Magazine St, New Orleans LA 70115) - Goal was The King Cake Protein Velvet Ice but apparently that was only seasonal around Mardi Gras. So I got a PJ's Original Cold Brew Iced Coffee instead. A chain but good stuff. Royal House (441 Royal St, New Orleans LA 70130) - Crawfish Benedict with a side of grits was very tasty. Parran’s Po-Boys & Restaurant (3939 Veterans Blvd, Metairie LA 70002) - Seafood Trifecta (1/3 fried shrimp sandwich, 1/3 fried oyster sandwich, 1/3 fried catfish sandwich *best*) dressed (mayo, lettuce, tomato). Chilly's Snoballs (3940 Veterans Memorial Blvd, Metairie LA 70006) - Sampled a few and then ordered 8oz Douberge and 8oz Wedding Cake from the drive-thru. Toups Meatery (845 N Carrollton Ave, New Orleans LA 70119) - Boudin Balls to go Mother's Restaurant (401 Poydras St, New Orleans LA 70130) - Ham, Jambalaya, Red Beans & Rice Other snacks ...

NOLA  - October 2018 Café Du Monde (800 Decatur St, New Orleans LA 70116) - Café Au Lait and Beignets, only a 10 minute wait with some live music and well worth it! Commander’s Palace (1403 Washington Ave, New Orleans LA 70130) - Soups 1-1-1 (Turtle Soup, Creole Gumbo du Jour, Soup du Jour), Commander's Crisp Romaine Salad, and Creole Tostada; and, of course, a 25¢ Martini (does it really matter what kind!). No wait for lunch today. All of it was delish and worth the dress code.  Pat O'Brien's (624 Bourbon St, New Orleans LA 70130) - World Famous Hurricane! Antoine's Restaurant (713 St Louis St, New Orleans LA 70130) - Oysters Rockefeller - baked on the half shell with the original Rockefeller sauce created by Antoine's in 1889. Central Grocery & Deli (923 Decatur St, New Orleans LA 70116) - The Original Muffuletta Sandwich on a 9″ round Sicilian sesame loaf stuffed with ham, salami, provolone, and olive salad filled...

New Orleans  - October 2018 Felix's Restaurant & Oyster Bar  (739 Iberville St, New Orleans LA 70130) - 1/2 dozen Char-Grilled Oysters as an app (very good!), Crawfish Etouffee (good but wish we could see and taste these more), Fried Soft-Shell Crab Platter (good but weird eating the shell and guts). The intent was also to get Boiled Crawfish, but they were not in season since the waters were still too warm.

As a  King Soopers   MyMagazine Sharing Network  Community Member, I'm going to write a short review of products I recently tried (samples were provided to me free of charge for being a community member). I tried: Dove Dry Shampoo Garnier® SkinActive® Soothing Facial Mist with Rose Water Maybelline® Eyestudio® Master Precise All Day Liquid Mini Eyeliner Love Beauty and Planet™ Shampoo and Conditioner Dove Dry Shampoo is good for freshening up your hair in the morning or at night. Garnier SkinActive Facial Mist felt nice before or after makeup application. Seemed a bit unnecessary and felt nicer in the summertime than wintertime. Maybelline Eyestudio Liquid Eyeliner is dark and lasted all day. Love Beauty and Planet Shampoo and Conditioner left my hair feeling clean and smelling good and felt good being better for the environment. #MyMagazineSharing #FreeSamp
