Hope you don't mind if I throw in some pics I took of NOLA a few years ago. I hope to entice more people who've never been there to go. Nobody regrets a visit to NOLA:
The CBD, Warehouse and Irish Channel neighborhoods
Central City/Mid-City Neighborhoods
Canal Street (the divide between the French Quarter, to the right, and the Central Business District to the left
What I meant by a cold fog along the river bank in winter
Where the muffuletta sandwich was born--you can't leave town without trying one
St. Louis Cathedral and park
Park in the Faubourg Marigny neighborhood (I forget its name)
The French Market (basically a flea market but at the near end is the famed Cafe Du Monde serving great beignets and hot chocolate or creole style coffee)
This was
Uglesich's Restaurant. In spite of the central European name, it was arguably NOLA's best cajun restaurant but Katrina (and the lire of retirement to its owners) blew it away
And lastly Dunbar's, once the home of what many considered the city's best soul food (especially the fried chicken) but also a victim of Katrina
