I had the opportunity to travel to New Orleans the other week. I had visited New Orleans over 20 years ago but only for a weekend so I didn't know too much about it.
The visit was quick, less than 24 hours but long enough to have a couple of meals. The first was at Emeril's in the Warehouse district. The reviews were good and it didn't disappoint. I had the Drum Fish special which was excellent. I washed it down with an Abita Jockamo IPA. It was great. At the next table I believe that Zach G. from the Hangover movies was dining.

The next day I had lunch at Herbsaint. The gumbo was exceptional. They also had drum fish on the menu, after the previous night I had it again. Although not as good as the night before it was very good and would order it again.
The Hilton Garden Inn was okay but convenient.
The best part of the city was probably the people. Everybody was friendly, and helpful. It would be a fun place to stay with good friends.
