I loveee the chargrilled oysters from Drago’s! It’s a must stop whenever I go to the city. And New Orleans is always such a fun time. I love going for their random drinking events like red dress run

It’s a run for charity but the drinkers skip that part and get up early to dressed in red dresses and bar hop. It’s so much fun seeing men and women matching in the most ridiculous way

I’ve been to Nola twice as well. I had a mixed seafood po boy that changed my life in mid-city (near where our airbnb was and honestly better food off of the strips). I saw Drake concert when he had the Nola bounce songs like In My Feelings so it’s such a memorable time and the 2nd was in the winter and I got to see the huge Christmas tree and have a different experience. I can’t wait to go back, I’ve been obsessed with the city way before I ever went and I love that Solange loves & lived in the city as well (fun fact: she received the key to the city)

That sounds like a tiiiiime! I definitely want to go back and give po'boys another shot. The food and the natives are truly the best part! My good friend move there years ago solely off the strength of Solange moving there lol

I considered living there but the job market is a bit narrow. If I had a fully remote job sure. Also the drinking culture is so heavy there. I had an uber driver tell us that when she first moved there she got addicted to drinking and was in recovery
