Brittany & David
Things To Do
Commander's Palace
Want to be treated like royalty? Let us know. If you didn’t know, Dave is the Kitchen Manager. Want the best meal in town? There isn’t any other option.
Foundation Room New Orleans
A hidden gem of the French Quarter, Brittany has since moved on, but this place still has a special place in her heart.
Audubon Aquarium of the Americas
Named “Aquarium of the Americas” for a reason.
The Presbytère
This incredible museum, located adjacent to the St Louis Cathedral, houses two exhibits which tell two sides of the ongoing Louisiana story—one of celebration and one of resilience. Mardi Gras: Its Carnival time in Louisiana and Living with Hurricanes: Hurricane Katrina and beyond. A day trip here, along with the Cathedral and the Cabildo, is an excellent way to immerse yourself in New Orleans culture while seeing a side of the city so different than hand grenades and bourbon street.
Hot Tin
Best rooftop view of the city, where we enjoyed our first post engagement cocktail.
Carousel Bar
The site of Dave’s final surprise the day of their engagement; a champagne toast with New Orleans friends and family, and a few cool dudes from The Midwest. Truly a spectacular bar (yes it does spin).
GW Fins
Order the Scalibut!! Our favorite dish in the city!
The National WWII Museum
Top 10 Museum in the US. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Gris-Gris
A New Orleans home cooked meal; elevated.
Fharmacy Nola
Dude......just go.
The Company Burger
Skip Port of Call. Best burger in the city
Magazine Street
Awesome shopping and eating strip. Sandwiched between the Garden District and the Irish Channel; beloved neighborhoods with contrasting architecture, yet both truly New Orleans.
Frenchmen Street
Skip Bourbon St.. see local music on Frenchman St!
Drago's - Hilton Riverside
Best Charbroiled Oysters! (Dave’s Favorite) The original is in Metairie, where we live. #fatcity
Rendezvous
Dave’s watering hole 🍺🥃🍻
Windsor Court Hotel
Have a drink at the Polo Lounge in a tailored suit. Have high tea in the grand lobby like a southern belle. Enjoy the horse pictures and statues of hunting dogs. Our favorite hotel. Take an elevator for a ride, just because.
Schaefer Seafood
Must get the crawfish boudin; enjoy it a block away overlooking the gorgeous lakefront of Lake Pontchartrain.
Guy's Po-Boys
Dave’s favorite Po-Boy. Get the Hot Sausage & Fried Shrimp “dressed”!
District Donuts Sliders Brew
Voted #1 donuts in the nation. We love their sliders to share! You will not be disappointed.
Stein's Market and Deli
Quintessential New York deli in the heart of New Orleans Garden District.
