Only season tickets are on sale as of yet and begin at a $120 price point, minus fees.

I would like to update our readers on what’s been going on in the world of NOLA Eats and more specifically, me, Leslie. To clarify, NOLA-Eats.com is not turning into a vegetarian-only food blog. I know [...] Alright, I’ll be frank with you guys and gals. Call me crazy, but even in the safety of my house, I am concerned with what I wear.

I am pretty certain that a swig of it that night saved [...] Today’s post by Daniele is actually last Thursday’s post by Daniele. After Halloween, I was totally exhausted and completely slacked off on the blog updates, not even knowing there was a *nod included to a time-sensitive event. Big apologies to Daniele and her readers! -Leslie, The Slacker Wow, was I bummed when Coffea, the coffee shop [...] I wish I had a dollar every time I was asked the question, “Where should I eat?” At my day job, which is frequented by mostly visitors to the city, I am the go-to girl for dining recommendations. (Note: I was just asked about a restaurant while I was typing this. No joke.) I couldn’t [...]  |
