January 18, 201511 yr comment_668745 I am just chalking this up to wrong choice of dish in the wrong season. It's a good restaurant, I just didn't get the best option this time. Happens. Having boudin in the room tonight, as I'm still a bit gassed from the travel day. Report
January 18, 201511 yr comment_668747 ^^^ Dan ... comes with being older and wiser. The little things don't matter as much. You are in LA, and maybe one big night in NOLA left. If not this trip, the next. If not then, in our collective dreams. If not The Easy, then maybe Slidell has left a mark. In the words of my backwoods TN aunt, "everybody has to live someplace, they all doing the best they can ..." Report

January 20, 201511 yr comment_668982 I have a dream ... Late lunch at a local institution. Joanne and I lowered the average age. Including the waitstaff. Report
January 22, 201511 yr comment_669241 You're brilliant. Those pics were making me hungry but the Cuban with the black beans in the background put me over the top. I guess there's more to Sliddel than I would have guessed. HS Report

January 22, 201511 yr comment_669315 Glad you made it, Dan. That looks like an upgrade from the goopy pasta the other day. Report
January 22, 201511 yr comment_669323 I did read the opening email and lurked as directed. Gently waded in when I needed a bit of technical help and was greeted kindly. Have been enjoying the posts and the forum as it reminds me of a niche muscle car forum I belong to. Sorry I missed the Cuban sandwich title. I don't always get it right....move too fast sometimes. Just got excited seeing Cuban food as it's my heritage. I'll step out of the thread as I seem to have irritated the natives. My bad. Sam Report
