More NOLA

Dinner at GW Finns was pretty good although we've have had better. It is still a great place to eat and we would recommend it. We had a really good Muffalatta at Franks in the Quarter for lunch. Boy they are filling but good -- lots of olives and olive oil!

Saturday morning dawned cloudy, cold and rainy. But we don't let that slow us down. We walked down Canal St. to the River Walk which is really a long covered shopping mall. Since we were going in the wrong direction from Cafe du Monde, we stopped at their mall shop and got beignets and coffee. Being fortified, we set out in the rain to walk toward the Warehouse District and then along Magazine St. towards the Garden District. We found a neat area to window shop and then had lunch at Jackson's. John's hamburger was a full 1/2 lb and slathered with hollandaise sauce and caramelized onions. It was, literally, finger-licking good!

The sun came out as we walked back along Charles St. We decided that we had had enough seafood so we chose to go to Mr. B's Bistro and shared a rack of lamb that was REALLY good. It had this sweet wine reduction sauce that complimented the lamb to a 'T'. Saturday night on Bourbon Street was hopping but we had walked to much, we turned in early.
