If you are attending Family reunion and just arrived or if it's years later and you're visiting New Orleans for the first time, we decided to help since we got here early and have had time to explore and play before work.....

So on our first night here ( actually our 2nd, we had a canceled flight that lost us a day here and got us in close to midnight) we had dinner at a great restaurant called Luke's



We did have a reservation, and we'd suggest one for you too.  Here is their menu

Karl had the Shrimp "Etouffee"  It's made with heirloom tomatoes and garlic and is amazing and wonderful.


I ordered the Salad Luke.  It was very fresh and made with a medley of wonderful and colorful ingredients all of which I liked except for the beets. ( no one can make those so I like them so I will not hold it against them)

The service was great & the restaurant was great for conversation, not too quiet or too loud.

Added bonus, they have amazing honey that tastes like berry honey to me and it was not delivered in packets, it was delivered in a little pouring pot  and I added it to my hot tea which was a real treat as well.

Karl was partial to the bread and I will have to take his word for it because I don't do gluten.....oh, and they have a nice selection of gluten free items too, which we've found harder to find here in New Orleans than we do at home in Tacoma.

Here is a link to their website


Have fun in New Orleans-  I hope we get to see you!
