The Invader’s Guide to New Orleans

I recently got my hands on a copy of the new Invader’s Guide to New Orleans, compiled by my friend Justin and the folks at Invade. It’s a 200 page guidebook, from a local’s perspective, on the best things to see, do and eat around town. It features short essays by a myriad of local writers on their favorite restaurants, bars, and boutiques, plus there are interviews with local artists, designers and creators at the end of the book.

Overall, I think it’s a good introduction to the best New Orleans has to offer for those new to the city or just visiting. The fact that there were so many contributors to this book means that the writing styles, and the lengths of each essay, vary a bit from one review to the next, but it’s a great first effort for a guide which hopefully will be updated from year to year. (And I’ll admit, it didn’t hurt to unexpectedly see my face on page 94 in a round up of local fashion bloggers!)
