Oh! And it's not really near the convention center at all, but if you want to see a little more of the city, take the streetcar up St. Charles, get off at the stop right after it turns onto Carrollton, and go the Camellia Grill. Get either an omelette or a burger, and a slice of pecan pie for dessert.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There's a branch of the Cafe du Monde in the adjacent mall
The Riverwalk. Which has always been an odd mall.

But it's got a Foot Locker where I got my lucky Saints underwear.
Cafe du Monde is the only place that has ever gotten my iced coffee right on the first try.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yes, but it's also an air conditioned way to walk a good chunk of the distance to the Quarter from the Convention Center.
Another alternative way to get to the Quarter from the Convention Center is the streetcar line that runs along the river. There's a stop right behind the CC.
I'll third Mulates. Terrific food and Abita on tap.

I'm just freaked out that their could be bad food in New Orleans. Isn't all the food wonderful?

I'm not sure I've had bad food. But I have had stuff that was no better than what you'd find at Chili's or whatever (I'm looking at you Bubba Gump).

How many other malls can say they've had a collision with a massive freighter ship?
