my favorite haunts, some pretty obscure-
1)Hi Ho Lounge - catch a live show there, alot of local rock groups, great bar/club.
2)Saturn Bar - they have live shows but you just gotta go inside to check this place out, it is like no other bar on earth guaranteed. Slightly dicey area so you might want to cab it to and from, not far from french quarter.
3)Checkpoint Charlies on Decatur, go for open mike if you can make it (i think its mondays) - local blues artists play there often.
4)One Eyed Jacks - slightly larger venue for live shows in the french quarter.
Restaurants in french quarter.
Ralph and Kacoos - one of the best southern seafood restaurants if not the best in new orleans.
Country Flame - best food for the best price. Great fajitas.
Voodoo Barbeque on St Charles Ave - great nola barbeque.
Lafittes Blacksmith shop in FQ - the oldest bar in nola and worth it just to check it out and down a pint.
