Food Scene

Fine dining from locally grown sources. They even grow their own herbs outside. If you've got a good arm, quite literally a stone's throw away. Nice bar seating as well.

Arguably New Orleans most famous restaurant. Is said to have been old the day it opened in 1890. It's 25 cent lunchtime cocktails are the worst kept secret in the city.

My favorite place for outdoor dining in the city. Grab a bottle from the wine shop upon entering, snag a table in the courtyard, place your order at the counter, and kick back to live music.

Probably my favorite restaurant in the city. Cajun/Creole that'll plug your arteries. Be brave. Order the alligator sausage cheesecake. No reservations for groups less than five, so get there early.

New Orleans' Vietnamese community have made the city a pho lovers' heaven. This place puts a bit of a contemporary spin on traditional dishes. Great for lunch when visiting the nearby arts museum.

Great casual lunch or dinner sandwich place if you're not in the mood for fine dining (Cochon next door covers that with exceptional creole dishes). Fun atmosphere, plus Chewbacca is in the bathroom.

Oldest running bar in America. Oil and candle lit, so rather dim, but a popular spot. If you're not in a group I wouldn't recommend going deeper than this into the Quarter for safety purposes.

It's a zoo. The orangutangs are awesome. If you're budgeted for time, you can see the giraffes without entering while you check out the massive and sprawling Tree of Life. Trust me, it's worth it.
