It's been a couple months since my trip to New Orleans and I can't stop thinking about it. I had so much fun. It was a weekend getaway that left me wanting to more. To feed my new found love for New Orleans, I thought I would write a post. And, let y'all know what I did on my little getaway. So, here are all the details about our trip.
Stay...
Eliza Jane Hotel
315 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70130
This is one of the most beautiful hotel I have ever stayed. The rooms are small but the amenities are lovely and the people are even nicer. The common spaces are photograph worthy and the bar is beautiful. But, even better is the bartender is knowledgeable about his liquor. He had the lowdown on all the spots in the city.
The hotel is located near the French Quarter and is walking distance to amazing restaurants, the French Quarters and Bourbon Street, and Harrahs Casino, and Canal Place which houses a lot of luxury brands if you are up for so shopping. Visit...
We hit the main spot Cafe Du Monde. There are a few throughout the city. I had my first beignet in Louis Armstrong Park. It was glorious, the beautiful weather accompanied by street artists and a band playing on the street. It was nothing like I have ever seen. Everyone was polite and it was an amazing vibe.
Our main eating places where Bourbon House, Red Slipper, and a slew of dive bars. One thing for sure is any place you chose, the food will be amazing.
At night we visited Harrah's New Orleans Casino where we gambled the night away. And, with that being said we spent our winnings at the Canal Place, an upscale mall, but there is also a discount mall called the Outlet Collection at the Riverwalk.
Overall we can't wait to go back. One piece of advice, check the times for museums and other attractions. A lot of things were closed in the beginning of the week but with everything opening back up this could have changed.
We are planning another visit next year with the kids!
