Eating in NOLA:

I know, I know. I gave a bunch of big talk about live blogging Jazz Fest food. It didn't happen, but here's what I can do for you. One picture of crawfish beignets. They were from... I don't remember where they were from but they were really good.



I know I shirked my duty. I didn't even take pictures of everything. There was a Cochon du Lait po-boy and a fried oyster spinach salad consumed that I didn't even get the camera out for.

If you are looking for a better Jazz Fest post then check out this post and these pictures from this guy you might know. Oh and look, we have similar tastes!

As promised a second Family Gras post.

We expected to have some pictures of food to show... but we ate too much earlier (more on that later) and didn't end up getting any thing there. So you know... here's a picture of a daiquiri. Its almost food... its a semi solid.


We took in a Better Than Ezra show which was pretty fantastic and we took this picturer during it and Kerry is at least as happy as she looks.

We went to Family Gras in Metairie yesterday and saw Sara Bareilles. We ate here I promise. I forgot to take pictures of the food... Here is a nice picture of us though.


Just trust me when I tell you Kerry had some oysters (char-grilled I believe) and some crawfish etouffee (funny side note Blogger doesn't recognize "crawfish" or "etouffee" as words) and I had a meatball po-boy and it was delicious.

We are going back today to see Better Than Ezra today and I'll remember to take pictures this time.

So Friday the 13th was a night of seconds for us... We also took our second trip to Clever Wines. We had been there once before for a weekly tasting they do.

Now we didn't eat anything there but we had a drink each and listened to Johnny J play some music. I realize I just referenced Johnny J like we listen to Johnny J all time time... or maybe like we have ever even heard of them (him?) before... we haven't. It was good though. We were by far the youngest people there and you could tell people were pretty jealous of our youth and good looks.


This is a picture of our drinks. Kerry had an amaretto sour. I had something called a Grandfather Clock that they invented there are Clever. I don't remember exactly what was in it but I think there was some grapefruit something, bitters, a sparkling wine of some sort and a sprig of thyme. It was good. And then we went and saw Taken at a high school hang out movie theater in Kenner and it was awesome and you should see it too.
