Famous for its powdery beignets and rich chicory coffee, this café is one of our favorite spots to enjoy a classic NOLA sweet treat!
The first time we visited, we had a wonderful time! A local favorite for hearty Creole classics, Neyow’s is the perfect spot to enjoy flavorful dishes like gumbo, red beans and rice, and char-grilled oysters. With its laid-back vibe and friendly service, it’s a must-visit for a true taste of New Orleans.
We recently discovered this hidden gem earlier this year and fell in love with both the food and the atmosphere! Morrow’s serves classic New Orleans cuisine alongside authentic Korean dishes, and it’s quickly become a local favorite - offering hearty portions in a warm, inviting setting.
A great option if you’re looking to enjoy a modern Senegalese tasting menu, with thoughtfully crafted courses, some served family-style, honoring the rich traditions and communal warmth of West African dining - and not far from our wedding venue!
If you're interested in the history of pharmacy and medicine in the 19th and early to mid-20th centuries, with a special focus on New Orleans and Louisiana, look no further than the New Orleans Pharmacy Museum. Housed in a historic Creole townhouse in the French Quarter, the museum was once the apothecary and home of America’s first licensed pharmacist.
As devoted jazz aficionados, we’ve found that Frenchmen Street captures the essence of what we love most about this city - its rich, soulful live-music scene. A favorite among locals and a bit of a hidden gem for visitors, this is the area where authentic, immersive jazz and blues spill from every doorway. If you’re craving that true, buzzing NOLA sound, wander into one of the vibrant music houses along the way, and let us know your favorite spot!
