I think the only place on earth that i would still go to even if it was infested with bed bugs is Disneyland. Unfortunately Funky Winker Beans, as glorious as its cheap booze and band nights may be, is not Disneyland. Adieu for now Funky's! :-(

THIS IS THE BEST FUCKING PLACE ON EARTH. When i meet new people, i like to take them here because how they react is a great indicator of their moral fibre and moxie.

A truly magnificent emporium for the discerning shopper. The store could not be more aptly named, as the knowledgable owners of this fine boutique have clearly scoured the lands for only the most Superior products available.
This is definitely one of…More »
7. Flanagan's Pub
Oh Flanagan's, how i love three. Within two hours of arriving in NOLA, our local friends instructed us to meet them here, describing it as the best place in the French Quarter and 'their bar.' They weren't exaggerating, and this was the only bar my…More »

I'm giving this 5 stars as it is up there in the pantheon of my fave places to eat around the city. I don't give a rat's ass that the servers don't smile at you and the place looks run down. I come here for basic, filling, tasty diner food and i…More »

HOLY CRAP, their veggie burgers are awesome!! Screw the meat ones, the veggie patties are where it's at. You can actually see chunks of mushrooms, rice and onion in there- not the processed, trying-to-be-meat like most veggie burgers are. New fave!
