New Orleans Originals
For a true New Orleans-style breakfast, there’s no place like Slim Goodies Diner. This neighborhood diner reopened 10 days after Hurricane Katrina made landfall, giving storm-weary New Orleanians a place to eat and come together. Polaroids of customers line the walls of the American–Creole breakfast joint. Menu highlights include the Guatemalan, a dish of eggs with black beans, avocados, plantains, tortillas, and salsa, and the Creole Slammer, which is hash browns topped with crawfish étouffée, eggs, and a biscuit. Round out your meal with a cup of local coffee or house-made chai tea.
Enjoy a one-of-a-kind meal in a vibrant atmosphere at Dat Dog, a gourmet hot dog restaurant that offers something for every taste. Diners may choose from more than 10 sausages (including crawfish and alligator) and a large variety of classic and unique toppings, including andouille sauce and guacamole. Can’t decide? Try one of the house specials such as the Crawfish Étouffée Dog, or if you’re feeling adventurous, order the Chef’s Choice. But no meal at Dat Dog is complete without an order of CheddarBaconRanch Fries.
