New Orleans travel tips
When you talk to locals in New Orleans or read some local guides, you may come across the word “NOLA” or “a Big Easy.” Actually, it is a nickname for New Orleans. So, no worries, nobody sends you to another city. You are still in New Orleans!
You will anticipate the majesty of the N7 restaurant in New Orleans just walking down the beautiful gardens leading to the entrance. Order smoked mackerel or habanero oysters there. Wine choice is also nice!
When you enter Antoine's Restaurant at 713 St Louis Street in New Orleans, you will feel like you were in the 1800s. Over 180 years, this America's oldest family-run restaurant has passed from generation to generation. Do not leave until you try the Oysters Rockefeller and Pommes de Terre Souffles. An average bill is $35-40 here, a good value for money for the intact interior and delicious cuisine.
