Frenchman Street is about a 13 minute walk. You know what to do .May I suggest hitting the frenchman deli and getting a not ice cold beer to go for a few bucks , then talk a stroll up and down Frenchman st scanning the clubs until you find the one with the best music that night.

Its a little tight in there but great jazz to be heard. Sunday nights after ten is the place to be if you are into Be Bop, depending on who sits in. You will clearly understand the level of musicianship we are accustomed to in New Orleans in about 3 minutes.

Some say they make the best King cakes. The savory meat pies and pastries, as well as the mystery meat vietnamese po-boys are pretty damn good for $3 or so. The restaurant side closes early so for some, often phenomenal pho, don't wait till dinner time. Gets crazy busy at noon so prepare to wait if you can't do an early or late lunch. You're going to want to drive here. This is where you get a poboy for 3 bucks.

Pizza buffet for lunch. Thick crust , not quite Chicago deep dish but satisfying. Coms with a salad. for like 11 bucks. No great variety on the buffet but it works. Caesar usually comes with a couple croutons smeared with roast garlic paste mmmm... You couldn't get a decent slice in NO , before the hurricane. Now we have probably a dozen decent providers of this essential food group. Meatball is the pie to get

The original was on the West Bank and it was my intro to Vietnamese food at the turn of the last century. Original owners moved to this side of the river to make way for a Kmart parking lot.over in Gretna . Always a good bet, it closes reasonably early. It is likely the closest place for pho to the apt.

Open 24/7 . A classic, nearly impossible to avoid New Orleans experience. "I need to eat something" is a phrase that one hears in the Quarter as the faithful stumble out of every bar and alley way like Zombies marching towards Verti Marte at 5 in the morning.
