I can’t eat at a table with somebody who doesn’t hold their silverware properly — it legit makes me want to scream. What are you 4? Did your parents not teach how to not eat like a neanderthal?
I feel like you live somewhere without crippling heat and humidity. Meanwhile I’ll tell you to kindly keep that positive attitude to yourself from my 100 degree patch of shade in Louisiana.
nah I always tell my boyfriend that I won’t give him a hard time about spending 5000 on a 4 wheeler or stupid amounts on golf clubs but that means he can’t say anything when i spend similarly obscene amounts on my equestrian habit
we act like we’re friends with everyone in the group for the sake of keeping the peace, since actually getting along with every single one of them is a little far fetched. otherwise the group would die.
ooh i forgot to mention carousel. it’s a classic, so go inside and take a look, but it’s become enough of an attraction that you’ll never get a seat. try kingfish for your early evening cocktail
For your bourbon st. tourist bar, I’m partial to bourbon cowboy over the beach, but really you should be on frenchman st. not bourbon at that point in the evening. Bourbon is for strip clubs, which are more of a late night thing in New Orleans. It’s an odd choice for day drinking, and I’d recommend Bourre uptown for a chill vibe with fantastic daquiris, or going with the classic Pat O’s if you want to party. The other great option for day drinking is the public rooftop pool and bar at the ace hotel.
The bulldog is great but it’s a college/grad school bar for the most part, and waaay too far away from anywhere else you’ll be going drinking. Go with crescent city brewhouse instead if you want a beer bar. It’s got a good vibe, it’s in the quarter, and the crowd is a little older. If you want to meet people, try tchoup yard instead. It’s nowhere near as nice but the margaritas are huge and it’s become the place to be these days. Speaking of trendy, hot tin at the top of the pontchartrain hotel is fantastic.
I’ll give him the goldmine. It’s where bachelorette parties go to die and a lot of fun. Your buddies WILL get laid there so that’s the place to end things. But if you recommend it you need to also tell people to only pay cash and not start a tab since they’re notorious scammers.
Drago’s is overrated. There are COUNTLESS restaurants in new orleans, particularly in the french quarter, with similar price points and significantly better food. I’d recommend Sylvain for a more casual vibe, or Coquette for something nicer. If you want more traditional food, you can’t beat the Pelican Club for execution.
Skip Court of Two Sisters. It’s a tourist trap. For upscale brunch, go to Brennan’s. For something more casual, Atchafalaya can’t be beat, and for a budget option with great food, try DTB.
It’s also a crime not to mention Commander’s Palace 3 martini lunch. The food, service, and prices are all fantastic. Can you say 25c martinis and bread pudding souffle?
i did too but baby heirloom tomatoes are a gateway drug
this. i like white meat and my boyfriend likes dark. guess which couple has never gotten in a fight over a drumstick or a chicken wing

rotisserie chickens are reserved for getting in late after a vacation when i’ve been eating for a week and feel too fat to actually want popeyes
what’s more olivia pope than microwave popcorn and a glass of red wine?
oh hey you’re coming to our neck of the woods. go to atchafalaya for brunch.
this got uploaded just as my boyfriend and were looking at flooring for the house we just bought…because it has more space for our dog
the ritual of playing music on a record player is really nice actually — it puts you in the right mood for a relaxing evening
I’d enjoy summer in Ohio too
But we experience a level of relief when it arrives that northerners can never understand

You’re so late to the party buddy
Not necessarily. Midfight proposal? It would even mean denying her a nice one
