quirky, wonderful, local. You walk through the kitchen to get to your table. Limited seating, they send you next door for a beer while you are waiting then come and call for you. Right next to the Maple Leaf, you can eat then catch a band.

famous for its poor boys (sandwiches on french bread stick. You can find out the history of the po'boy here : http://www.neworleansonline.com/neworleans/cuisine/traditionalfoods/poboys.html ). Situated near Bayou St John, a nice outing is to ride the bikes up to City Park (where you can also get beignets and chicory coffee in more pleasant surroundings than Bourbon St) then to ride back through the neighbourhoods, a stop here would be on the route :-)
