Everyone loves to be the first in most anything, but restaurants especially here in New Orleans. Some of the restaurants are weeks old- others months. All types of foodies from fine dining to mom and pop shops - but never buffets, cafeterias or chains. Some restaurants will offer a fixed price for a chef's selected course and/or dine as you will from your choice - the latter is great for the light eater or budget concerned. We predominantly dine on Wednesday evenings @ 6:30pm and offer the most …

Single groups seem to always be focused on a certain age, but what everyone doesnt realize is that sometimes meeting people through others can help start a solid relationship. This group is for meeting people in two ways. Members can randomly meet people in the group, or once we get to know one another we can introduce people to other friends of our own. Many of us have single friends that are looking to find the right person. While we may not always run into the right person for us, we may be a …

Banquets & Books is for people who are passionate about food and reading and who enthusiastically discuss books--fiction and non--about all aspects of food, cooking and eating. The plan is to meet every six weeks or so at my house. Each time, we’ll read and discuss a book on any and all topics related to food. Sometimes we'll see a film and then discuss it.  As we talk, we’ll have a little wine (or what you will) and we’ll eat and sometimes cook together. What we've read so far:  52 Loaves, …

To provide details and/or a knowledgeable companion from a local restaurant reviewer. So many restaurants - so little time! Attention tourists and transplants! Don't fall for all the hype of a slick advertisement - my honest opinion from a native who has dined out for overy forty years. Also, perhaps, you would like to try an off the beaten path independent restaurant - many of which are featured in my weekly, local cable TV show, Restaurant Revue (Orleans Cox Cable, Channel 76, Wednesdays and S …

Hello fellow cooking fans. New Orleans has always been a place for great cuisine. Whether it be at the start of the meal with a great appetizer, a mouth watering entree, or a delicate sweet taste of a desert, we have got all the types in this city. People have been creating new recipes and reusing old ones for years in this city. I know when my father used to own both a bakery and a pizza place how much I liked to share my family cuisine with others. I want to create a place for people that enjo …

We don't have to wait 6 months, and the places don't have to agree to special deals, or to appear on anyone's show. There are far too many amazing places to try in New Orleans, but let's see where everyone wants to go, and give it a whirl. Pop-ups, BBQ, pizza, eclectic, ethnic, or traditional - all are fair game. Only one rule - be nice, or stay home.

Okay, here's the deal: We all work too much. We've somehow forgotten how to have fun and this group's focus is primarily to reteach us how. Singles are encouraged, but we aren't what could be called a singles group. The fun society takes all comers who want to cut loose and make questionable decisions all in the name of having a good time. So if you're single; sign up for the fun and meet other singles, and if you're a couple; sign up for the fun and well, have fun - apart or together. We don' …

Mary Oliver wrote a beautiful poem that ended with the line, "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" This group is about doing just that - living wild and precious. Living wild and precious can be anything from canoeing by moonlight in the bayous to donning wigs and going out dancing to 80s music, to gathering to discuss a compelling book. It's about making time for ourselves even when we're busy taking care of everyone else. It's about living our dreams, big a …
