Sadly it's not for me!! A good good friend of mine (and my best selling author) is going to the Saints and Sinners Literary Festival in New Orleans next month and asked me about checking with you fine people for any updates on eating in that fair and foodcentric city! i thought there was an earlier thread on New Orleans but I searched the archives and came up a blank.

The authors name is Anthony Bidulka, the creator of the very popular Russell Quant mystery series.
