A local’s city guide to New Orleans, including the best restaurants, bars, music and things to do.
New Orleans is a city built on joie de vivre. Excess is the order of the day, whether you’re a first-timer hunting for cheap beads and bad booze on Bourbon Street or a lifer deciding what to order on your po’ boy. Everyone’s mom or grandma makes the best gumbo, and — yes — they do want to talk about it. Food is synonymous with identity here, one that all New Orleanians hold equally regardless of race or class.
The Crescent City’s rich history dates back more than three centuries. Over that time, Africans, Choctaw Indians, Haitians, Sicilians, Spaniards, Germans, French, Croatians and many other individuals have stirred the melting pot. Newer arrivals from places like Vietnam and Honduras are adding their own style. New Orleans bounces to its own brass band beat. The architecture is grand. The music comes from every corner. Art is everywhere — even on the water-meter covers.
