Visiting New Orleans

Our visit to New Orleans

After our visit to wet visit in Mississippi, we took our housecar and drove to New Orleans. New Orleans is a beautiful city near the Mississippi river. It is a pretty warm city with hot, humid summers and mild winters. We arrived in New Orleans early in the morning and drove to a restaurant named Antoine’s. Antoine’s is a classical restaurant located in the French quarter of New Orleans. The restaurant serves Louisiana Creole cuisine which is mixed French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, African and Asian cuisine. When we got into the restaurant, we ordered a nice breakfast called Grits and grillades which is made of egg and bacon and sometimes is pork, beef and vegetables added to it. With the breakfast we drank coffee.

Antoine’s restaurant was founded in 1840 by Antoine Alciatore and had been owned by his family ever since then. The restaurant is known for that it have been visited by prominent presidents and by Pope John Paul II.

Some of Antoine’s restaurant was destroyed after the Hurricane Katrina disaster but was later repaired.

When we went out of the restaurant, we decided that this wasn't the city for us and we just felt that we wanted to go to Miami instead of hanging around here. So we simply went to Miami.
