If anyone is interested to get together for a lunch/tea/beer/whatever, shoot me a message. OMG, we’re so close & yet, school is eating up my spare time (it’s a 3.5 hour drive from my home.) I hope you get to meet globalfinancepartners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfp Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I'll be out of town unfortunately, but you can check out a few mardi gras parades when you're in town if that kind of thing interests you. Chewbacchus is in the Marigny (a neighborhood downriver of the French Quarter) - it's a good locals parade on Saturday, and there is a mardi gras dog parade, "Barkus" in the French Quarter on Sunday. Is it an Artificial Intelligence conference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I'll see if I can make these. Is it an Artificial Intelligence conference? Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfp Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Cochon and Green Goddess (in exchange alley) are both great. If you don't have enough time to get in at Cochon, there is Cochon Butcher around the corner in the same building, which is a quicker sandwich shop / butcher shop. Good stuff. Enjoy Nola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgis Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 Yeah, did Cochon today. Was great! Could not make Chewbacchus. :'( I think I am little short for a Stormtrooper. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG2008 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 If you're going to be in NOLA, just make sure that you get some of their BBQ shrimp. It's messy and buttery as hell, but it is well worth the hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
