Going to New Orleans is like going to another country. The city has a style and a sense of self utterly its own. Never is the generous character of New Orleans more on show than during the ten-day period of Jazz Fest when the headliners read like a who’s who of music.
But the night! Oh, the New Orleans night! It is in the backstreet bars and in the backyard gardens that the city shows its seductive self…crawfish on the grill, soul music drifting through an open door, the sweet smell of oleander hanging on the hot, still air. The night goes on forever…
And for a delicious dinner, Dante’s Kitchen serves up spoon bread – molasses cornbread with honey butter – shrimp and grits, roasted gulf fish and local veg. To complement this delicious menu, their in-house flavored vodkas are the perfect libation.
