This Monday is high life in New Orleans streets. First there is the first presidential debate between Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump. But more importantly the the local NFL team, the Saints is playing against the Falcons in New Orleans. They haven't won a single game this season so emotions are rising. I went with my friend Ben to a sports bar to follow both events. The streets of New Orleans were absolutely empty, most restaurants closed, exiting to see a whole city magnetized.
Red beans and Rice, a typical New Orleans dish for Monday (Monday is laundry day, so food needs to be quick). It is actually really well seasoned and spicy. I love it.
thanks Ben for taking me out
My last day in New Orleans. Today I went to the Voodoo Church (which I covered in the last post. Otherwise I just wandered the streets and said goodbye to one of the most fascinating cities of my journey.
Beignets and Chicory Coffee, they are considered unique for New Orleans. But if you are from Southern Germany you might know them as “Fasnachtskichlen or Krapfen” and Land- Zichorienkaffee (Incarom in Switzerland).
Crawfish etoufee, a typical Creole dish. Something like a very spicy and creamy crab soup
Burlesque Show in OZ (last night). Amazing what shows you can see here without paying a dime. Nights are hot here in New Orleans!
See you again!
