Summer, as you know, can be slow in New Orleans. There are a few perks, one of them being the upcoming Coolinary New Orleans month (heavily discounted fixed menus at restaurants across the city) and another being very cheap hotel rates. If you’re looking for a break in your own city at a bargain price, we’ve rounded up some of the sweetest suites in town - these rooms (such as the above, at Maison de la Luz) will really whisk you away if you want a day or two of escapism.
Also in this week’s edition: Tales of the Cocktail shakes things up, we sit down for dinner at Chef Donald Link’s newest spot, we head to Paris with Mrs Harris and we run our first (of many, hopefully) reader review. All of this, plus a selection of the week’s best events.
A quick plug for our sister site, Up All Night New Orleans - your nightlife highlights free every Thursday if you’re interested!
We’ll be back next week with more news and reviews! In the meantime, have a great week and much love, wherever you are.
