Drop Me Off In New Orleans!

New Orleans is hands down one of my favorite cities. The French Quarter is so alive: jazz music on every block, various scents wafting through the air (from fried seafood to, well, not-so-nice smells), people from all over the world, incredible food, gorgeous wrought iron accents on ancient architecture, and a deep rich history woven throughout. On this trip I got to spend a couple days with my mom and grandmother; even shared a "huge ass beer" with them on Bourbon Street! I also discovered the best shrimp po boy I have ever had...even better than the famed Johnny's Po-Boys! Housed in the back of a tiny ecclectic bar (Erin Rose), Killer Po-Boys packs some serious flavor. Sauteed shrimp, grated carrots, pickled radish, cilantro, and special sauce made for one bad ass po-boy. Don't let the location deter you! Laissez les bon temps rouler!

There's always room for beignets and cafe au lait at Cafe du Monde!

Pretty sure this is Stalebread Scottie and His Gang

No trip to NOLA is complete without a Kermit Ruffins concert. We saw him at the Blue Nile on Frenchmen. Best show yet!
