A must-eat! Delicious, real New Orleans food, including dishes like Trout Amandine, Shrimp Etouffee, and more. Note that they don't take reservations, and all members of your party must be present to be seated. Don't worry... it's worth it.

This animal rescue is near and dear to my heart. I volunteered here when I lived in New Orleans. They're always looking for dog-walkers-- it's a great and unusual way to get some steps in while also getting your daily requirement of animal cuddles. <3 Sign up to volunteer at animalrescueneworleans.org!

Neighborhoods
Take a stroll around the Marigny to explore fun restaurants, coffee shops, wine bars, vintage stores, and more. You'll find historic architecture updated with a modern vibe, and you never know-- you might even stumble across a mini parade or street concert.

I grew up here, so I have a soft spot for the Carrollton neighborhood! One of the oldest neighborhoods in New Orleans, Carrollton is known for its oak-lined streets and friendly family vibe.
