St. Louis Cathedral
It is a historic landmark in the French Quarter of New Orleans and the oldest continuously active Roman Catholic cathedral in the United States.
Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop & Bar
It is one of the oldest bars in the United States, dating back to the 1700s. Lady Gaga is said to have visited as well.
Royal House
Great for fresh gulf oysters and a great sampling of typical Louisiana food: red beans and rice, jambalaya, gumbo, and crawfish etoufee. We went here on our honeymoon and sat at the bar for some late night oysters and beer; a stranger bought us champagne and picked up our entire tab!
LA Poke & Sushi
Our favorite poke bowl restaurant! Fresh and soooo delicious! and even after trying all sorts of sushi in Japan, including high-end sushi, we’re completely hooked! The vietnamese owner is full of warmth and unique.
