Talking New Orleans Food with Ian McNulty

Today’s show is all about New Orleans food! I'm joined by local writer, reporter, and food critic, Ian McNulty. We talk about the New Orleans food scene, past and present. Ian and I discuss changes post-Katrina, warning signs you might be in a tourist trap, and a whole lot more!

By the end of today's show, you'll be hungry! You'll also have a long list of places to check out.

Sponsor: The Old 77 Hotel and Chandlery

When you're ready to make your plans to visit New Orleans, you'll need a place to stay! The Old 77 is ideally situated in the Warehouse District, just three blocks from the French Quarter. It features a variety of pet-friendly rooms, the award-winning Compere Lapin restaurant, and more.

You'll love the location, the rooms, and the food, but the details and the service are what you'll fall in love with!

You'll also get a bit of lagniappe, a little something extra. In this case, you'll receive a $10 credit to be used at Tout La in the hotel lobby - your stop for coffee and a quick bite to eat as you head out to explore New Orleans.

Thanks to Ian McNulty for joining me on this episode. It was so great to hear his take on the New Orleans food scene. I expect it will not be his last appearance on Beyond Bourbon St, at least not if I get a vote ;)
