If there is one thing that the French Quarter is known for, besides a hell of a place to party, is its incredible restaurants. Here, you will find some of the best food and service that money can buy, sampling traditional Louisiana dishes such as crawfish étouffée, seafood gumbo, jambalaya and the trusty old Lucky Dog, which makes for the perfect late night snack to soak up some alcohol after a night of bar hopping. Not sure if these hot dogs are even that good; hell, they may not even be hot dogs, but after several Hand Grenades at the Tropical Isle and a couple Hurricanes courtesy of Pat O' Briens, anything seems like a delicacy!
Antoine's Restaurant is one of the most prominent restaurants in the French Quarters. A four-star establishment all around, you will never leave here unsatisfied nor hungry. It is here that the famed dish, Oysters Rockefeller was founded, which are basically grilled oysters smothered in a rich sauce of butter, spinach and Parmesan cheese. The name is quite suiting, as it honors the richness of the dish. As I sit here with a beer in hand and a bowl of chips, I am literally drooling on the keyboard, craving a dozen of these beauties!
