well, I dunno where you'll be able to go or how much time you'll have... but I can tell you the foods you should eat while in N.O.!

firstly, you MUST get a muffuletta at central grocery. that is the true original stuff. just do it. they're amazing.

secondly, you need to have a real poboy there. especially fried popcorn shrimp poboys. soooo good. I don't remember where we usually get poboys at, but they're no doubt delicious anywhere you go.

thirdly you mustmustmust have some beignets (sp?) in N.O. with a nice cup of hot chocolate or coffee. mmmm. btw cafe du monde is most famous for theirs.

and finally if you were 21 you should get a tasty hurricane (the best come in a giant-ass styrofoam cup you can carry everywhere) but alas...

hope that helped some! GL with your epic journey.
