New Orleans

Jenn Ocken: Dang good Bloody Mary

superJennifer: Boundaries are: St. Charles Ave, 1st St, Magazine St & Toledano St. Developed between 1832-1900. One of the best preserved collection of historic southern mansions in the USA.

Will N: 6th-largest urban public park in the US, approx. 50% larger than Central Park in NYC. Holds the world's largest collection of mature live oak trees. Founded in 1853, one of the oldest parks in the US.

Eater: Amazing fried chicken, often called the best in town. The food and atmosphere are quintessential New Orleans, among the best you’ll find in town. [Eater 38 Member]

Dens: This should the first things you do on your first morning in New Orleans... a dozen charbroiled oysters & killer Bloody Mary. Ask for the vodka at end of the bar that's been been bathing in olives

Oula Lang: Get your oysters at the bar. Felix's is less busy and touristy than ACME, and the oysters are just as good.

Men's Health Mag: You’re walking into history when you walk in here. Restaurant opened in 1918—it’s been through it all. Drink of choice? The French 75, their signature cocktail. Heck, have a few. It’s Nawlins.

NOLA Nites Concierge | Meloney Smith: Arnaud’s intoxicating bread pudding dotted with rum-soaked raisins and topped with warm bourbon sauce.

Michael Karnjanaprakorn: When it's warm outside, go across the street, pick up some crawfish, bring it back, order an Abita and have a feast on the outside patio.

Eliska O.: You haven't had a muffuletta until you've had one from Central.

James Ward: I've been too hundreds of poboy joints in NOLA. This I the best. No matter how long the line it's worth it. If you don't have a beer, locals drink Barqs.

BET: NOLA natives and tourists from around the world flock to this spot for their BBQ Shrimp. Do yourself a favor and pick up some while you're in the bayou!
