Table 1 @dookychaseresteraunt is the only place to be on Maudy (Holy) Thursday, courtesy of the host-with-the-most John Pope (@rufus1timmy). So if the #rainapocalypse hits, I will at least be well fed with gumbo z'herbes and fried chicken. Sad that there was no Leah Chase for our early seating--hope she is doing ok! . . . #tradition #nolatradition #gumbozherbes #leahchase #friedchicken #nolafood @theneworleansadvocate (at Dooky Chase's Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwaEQh-lPbz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1weydils32tgl

Galatoire’s: photos (clockwise from bottom) Black Bottom Pecan Pie, Caramel Custard Cup and Cafe Brulot, Cafe Brulot in the making.

The Pecan Pie was AMAZING. It was perfect. The cookie crust was perfect texture, and the filling was super sweet and nutty, without being too sticky or too wet. Sublime. Custard was lovely - nothing special though. Cafe Brulot is a coffee-liqueur (or maybe it was proper likker? idk - it was alcoholic) with fruit situation set on fire at your table. It was good and basically tasted like a nice sweet-n-spicy black spiked coffee. Of course Galatoire’s killed it in service and style, plus there’s an A++ for Nola tradition. But seriously that Pie was ridiculous.

Overall grade: A

These feathered and jeweled suits of the Zulu dukes are as dazzling as the ones proudly sewn by the Mardi Gras Indian chiefs. #zuluparade #mardigras #neworleans #onlyinnola #nolalove #zulusocialaidandpleasureclub #crescentcity #louisiana #nola #nolatradition (at New Orleans, Louisiana)
