Its also a great neighborhood near the FQ and is home to Frenchman St. the best area for live music in NOLA. If you've seen Glen David Andrews play around here, next time you're in NOLA go hear him on a Friday night at 3Muses. It's one of the best shows you'll see.

Just had a quick lunch at El Mercadito on Hwy 28 and wanted to let everyone know how good it was. I don't understand why there was not a line out of the door. We had 2 tacos - one beef and one tongue. The tongue was very tender and juicy but the beef was slightly more flavorful. We also had...

Had lunch at Shorty's on Wednesday. Had the Grouper sandwich (fried) and it was fantastic. Husband had the cheeseburger. Cooked as ordered and well seasoned. We also had some ceviche to start which was really tasty. The chips that they serve with the ceviche were kickazz!

Didn't notice the lack of liquor license. We had a 1/2 bottle of Champagne to start and then a bottle of New Zealand Pinot Noir.

Let me start by saying that I am in the restaurant business and am a little snobby about dining out when on vacation at the beach. Seems like we always end up at some tourist trap with horrible steamed snow crabs and overcooked fried seafood. That being said, we love Stinky's and have had...

Looks like FOX is showing the Tampa game instead. Do you know of anyplace on 30A that has Sunday Ticket?

excellent - cant wait

Stinky's has a really interesting wine list and great food. We stay across the street and everytime we eat out somewhere else I always wish we would have just walked over to stinky's

We're Back I know this thread is old now, but we'll be back in SOWAL next week and am wondering if blue crabs are in season still. We pretty much have them year round here but they aren't always very big or full. Your FL crabs are so good I'm hoping to get another couple dozen while there...

I know how to clean them -- I just do it when they're dead. I guess getting them really cold might help. For some reason I don't mind cleaning live softshells (just cut their head/eyes right out) but the thought of ripping the guts out of the crab's shell just freaks me out a little. I'm glad...

Please tell me, how are you cleaning them before cooking? I am in awe if you can clean them alive. I never thought of myself as sqeamish but UGH. I've never used Old Bay. We use Zatarains liquid and bagged crab boil. If I were to season them after, I'd use Tony Chacheres. I went to Nicks...

We always boil them in NOLA. I don't know how you'd be able to clean them without at least dropping them in boiling water first. Even after keeping them cold, they are pretty fiesty as they are being thrown in the pot. I'm so clumsy, I'd be sure to lose a finger if I tried to rip off they...

THanks so much to everyone. Finally got my crabs from a really nice guy named Jay in SeaGrove. I called the number that you gave me for Sam and this is the guy that called me back. We have 2doz. big ones and are boiling them tonight. Of course we have our Zatarains, some potatoes and a...

Okay - stupid question but the crabs in the gulf aren't blue crabs . . . right? They look totally different and I have seen lots close to the beach for the last few days but they looked pretty small and I wasn't sure if they were good to eat. I would assume they would but you never know. I'd...

Called Sam and he said he'd get me a couple dozen. Where do you trap for crabs and do you need a license? In Louisiana, you can get in big trouble for trapping illegally.

Keeping my fingers crossed for the Who Dat Nation. They are killing me today.

My husband and I are visiting from NOLA and I have an extreme craving for blue crabs. Any place that we can have them? Or any place I can buy them live and cook them myself? Many thanks.

We're from NO and are in Dune Allen. Anyplace close showing the game tonight? Don't want to go too far...

Hey, we're Saints season ticket holders (2nd year--lucky us!) and are in Dune Allen for the week. Where should we go to watch the game Thursday? Brought our jerseys, just lookin' for the crowd...
