Corey Lee is the head chef at The French Laundry. Thomas Keller does not cook there anymore and hasn’t been there in years. He’s doing other things other than cooking apparantly.

Meh, please… It was “French Laundry” who posted the ad to begin with. Nobody’s paying for a reservation to that place – and for lunch, no less! LOL!

Thanks Wo! Great info for Acme. Oysters are indeed a passion of mine. Looking forward to eating my Mufletta Sandwich on the banks of the Mississippi!
Since NOLA is mostly geared twords the Creole side of things, it will be harder to find my beloved Cajun food! Also will be scouting out for “soul” food and great boudin. Did find a few leads on the web. No car on this trip, so I can’t take a drive and explore. I will let you know how it comes out! Counting the days …. 8D

MsSteak- Wrote you a detailed response about N.O. but it got deleted or something?
Short version: Dinner Jacque-Imo’s. Tough to find and get into- no reservations but great, local place. Bayona is great and I’ve heard great things about Cochon. Lunch: Acme Oyster House. All of these have websites you can look at. So jealous! Have fun!

I don’t mind waiting AT K-Pauls!
I’d wait for days … months …
I’m just anxiously WAITING to make a reservation.
They have a 30 day out policy.
I hear you can pretty much get in to
all the “must-eats” now quite easily!
I just don’t want to take ANY chances.
Any other ideas on where to eat?
Kinda want to hit the LOCALS favs …
Not tourist traps.
Central Grocery and Cafe Du Monde are on the list!

Can’t speak to the French Laundry stuff because, sadly, I’ve never dined there. Easy fix on the selling the res’ on CL would be to require the name on the res’ to be the name of the person showing up. Simple enough.
MsSteak- Since Katrina, the couple times I have gone to KPaul’s- didn’t need a reservation. So you have to wait? Big deal. Sit at the bar and have a Cajun-tini complete with olives and pickled melitans(sp?) Yeow!

Heather – I wouldn’t blame you if you deleted all those comments above from the idiots who had a bad week and want to take it out on you. PEOPLE _ THIS IS A BLOG ABOUT FOOD… FOOOOOOOOOOOD. Not all this crap you worthless idiots vent and moan and complain about. Get a life. It’s about Food… go find a good counselor to talk all your crap to.

Seriously Mudge…. why do you people even read this blog when all you have is nasty smart ass comments to make. Go read People or USWeekly or something…. Leave Bite Club Alone for us who appreciate it!
