Hi, everybody,
This past weekend I went to New Orleans. I went to Mona Lisa's, Cafe Beignet, and The Somethin Else Cafe again. I couldn't stay away from them.
A new restaurant I went to was The American Sector. The owner is John Besh. My server was Byron. He was really nice. The restaurant was next to the World War 2 museum. It's really kid friendly. What I wanted to try was their mac & cheese. I'm glad I did! The mac & cheese was served in old fashioned lunch box. The mac & cheese was on top of a mountain of fries. The fries were on news paper which I thought was cool. The mac & cheese was really cheesy and gooey, just the way I like it!
Another restaurant I went to was Irene's. It was packed. We waited an hour to be seated. So we decided to leave and went to Mona Lisa's. My advice to you is get a reservation!!! It did look great so we will definitely try it next time.
We also did some Christmas activities. We did caroling at Jackson Square, saw Santa, snow and real reindeer at Fulton Street and rode rides and saw all the Christmas lights at City Park!! I hope your family has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.


Till next time,
