Megan,

If you post your email (or one that you keep just for "junk" email) i'll email you my recent trip report from N.O.

We visited New Orleans 4 years ago and went to the Court of the Two Sisters for drinks only. We sat at the bar and Flo, the "mixologist", served the best Ramoz Gin Fizz I've ever had. Reminiscing about our afternoon at the Court of the Two Sisters still epitomizes the New Orleans experience for us, without having dined there. This way, you still achieve the experience of having visited without missing the opportunity to dine at another restaurant. I highly recommend this as an alternative to dining there.
