We are literally crossing things off Eric's New-Orleans-Must-Do list.
We had dinner tonight at Restaurant August and it did not disappoint. I handily won the appetizer course with my stuff crab vs Butch's shrimp dumplings.
Butch easily won the main course with his pork vs my duck.
The fried apple pie dessert was a fail. Just a gentle reminder that you can't have everything.
After dinner, we made our way back to Bourbon Street stopping at The Chart Room for a few drinks. Great local dive bar. Reminds me of the Flight in my neighborhood. I am making my way through the list of classic New Orleans cocktails. I had a few Sazeracs at Chart Room. At a bar on Bourbon Street, I had my first and last Gin Fizz. I discovered that I don't like Gin Fizzes. Duly noted.
We are now quite exhausted from the early morning flight and are sitting on our balcony taking in all the craziness on Bourbon Street.
I'm not sure what tomorrow will bring. Stay tuned.
