Good morning everybody and happy Tuesday!!
You can get your day started off right with a trip to the Farmer's Market!!! Visit the Crescent City's Farmer's Market at University Square (200 Broadway) from 9:00 to 1:00 pm and Greg and Mary Sonnier of The Uptowner is serving up lunch under the Green Plate Special Tent. This week they'll have dishes like spiced black bean soup, gumbo z'herbes, fajita chicken salad, smoked pulled pork sandwiches and sweets....yummy!!
Celebrate Navy Week with a very special Cocktail Party - tonight from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm at The Westin New Orleans Canal Place Hotel (11th floor-100 Iberville Street). Ships from all over the world will be arriving on the 17th and docking along the East Bank of the Mississippi River. The festivities will culminate with a spectacular fireworks display over the river around 8:30pm. It's an evening of live jazz, specialty cocktails available for $8 each as well as full bar options, complimentary hors doeuvres and a phenomenal view of nautical ships and glistening fireworks!
Good Music Tonight!
And there's a great evening on the Avenue....Cause it's another lovely southern night for porch sitting and music over at the The Columns (3811 St. Charles Ave.)...Have a fancy cocktail and listen to the guitar stylings of John Rankin!
Head on over to Mid-City and to Chickie Wah Wah (2828 Canal)! They've got the Sweet Olive String Band at 5:00 pm, and be sure to stay on for Tommy Malone on guitar and Bill Malchow on piano at 8:00 pm - come hungry for delicious pizza, pasta, salads and more!!
Right down the street the Spotted Cat (623 Frenchmen) has a double header with no cover - Andy Forest at 4:00 pm, Tuba Skinny at 6:00 pm, and top off the evening with Meschiya Lake & The Little Big Horns at 10:00 pm!
End your night over at the Maple Leaf Bar on Oak Street...with the Grammy Award winning REBIRTH Brass Band they come on around 10:30ish - there's a cover, but you'll be glad you paid and stayed up late!!
