Sit at the bar and get the Crayfish crepes. While you are there check out the ghost room. They put out bread and a glass of wine every night. Since they started doing that, the ghost has stopped haunting them.

Do not miss the best pork chops in the world. Unless you are a big eater, you can probably split an order. Just make sure someone at your table orders the pork chops so that you can try them. It’s above the Apple Barrel on Frenchmen’s. Cash only. No reservations. Put your name on the very long list and then enjoy a drink at the Spotted Cat or the Apple Barrel. Adolpho himself still works in the closet size kitchen.

Be sure to order the ribs and the macaroni and cheese. I could eat their macaroni and cheese every day! If you are all eating ribs, sometimes it's cheaper to order a dozen and split them 2-3 ways than to have 2-3 people order separately. It's a good stop for lunch or dinner. Closed on Mondays.
