Another favorite of ours. The restaurant is in a gorgeous old building. We've like eating at the bar for a more casual option. The cheeseburger is the best in the city but everything there is good. James Beard Award winner.

Legendary snowball shop. Homemade syrups. Unique ice-shaving equipment (invented by the original owner) creates an amazing light cool summer treat. My favorite is the "filled" snowball (ice cream center) with nectar syrup topped with sweetened condensed milk. Heaven. Open Spring thru Fall.

This is a relatively new place in a nicely renovated building. Great spot for a casual brunch. In a bustling area of Magazine Street. Lots of shops, bars, and other restaurants nearby. Good people watching if you seat outside. I like to take out-of-town visitors here for a good selection of local favorites like Eggs Sardou and Biscuits and Gravy. Interesting bar options.

This beautiful urban park has a lagoon, walking/jogging trail, and a golf course. Gorgeous old oak trees covered with Spanish Moss. It is about 5 miles from our house to walk to the park, complete the circuit, and return to the house. You can also drive there or take the streetcar.
