Day 2 in the Crescent City kicked off with a divine brunch, bloody mary bar and live music at Atchafalaya in Uptown.
Afterwards we went on an all day shopping tour of some of bestie R’s fave haunts, including Little Miss Muffin in Lakeview, The Plant Gallery (Home and Garden Store) in Metairie and The Garden Gate in old Metairie. Back in Uptown, Monique and Magazine Street pup Ping were dolls to open up their shoppe and wrap up our Art for Arts Sake Oysteria purchases for the flight home.
After doing a little tour of some gorge Halloween decor and a couple of hours unwinding on bestie R’s front porch, we headed to the much anticipated La Petite Grocery for supper. It was a convivial meal with divine food and loads of the kind of laugh till you cry stories that seem to define our times with these guys!
Tomorrow will be spent on Magazine Street y’all!!!
OMG! Y'all ate at two of my fav restaurants in NOLA–sure could go for some truffle fries and that burger! Glad you are having a good time! Of course, how could you not with Ron and Jeff as your hosts! Enjoy the rest of your trip. :)
You know what I like best about your blog? You always have a cocktail on here! I follow a ton of blogs and I can tell that they drink punch and coffee at all their showers. At my showers I serve wine and signature drinks. Even at baby showers. You make me feel normal! LOL THANK YOU Cheers!
Next time you go – be sure to check out my friend's cheese shop – St. James Cheese – on Prytania Street. They do amazing sandwiches and such too. Here is their site: http://www.stjamescheese.com/
