Grandma!
Yum! Yum! Yum! Galatoire's for lunch! Robert joined us far an amazing feast, as usual. I had the best bourbon sour ever. The fried eggplant sticks with remoulade sauce are just as good as ever! Robert and I then shared crabmeat maison with extra, extra anchovies and oysters en brochette. Next we shared crawfish étouffé and shrimp clemenceau. Another bourbon sour for me! And dessert: bread pudding with bananas and drowned in caramel sauce ( the latter, per my request!). I have died and gone to heaven...but I will be back for more NO food! We left Galatoire's at 3pm!
After a short nap, we walked over to Louis Armstrong Park to hear Rockin Dopsie (pronounced Doopsie) Jr. I heard his father perform years ago...Jr. was already part of the band and he must have been in his twenties! Wonderful Looziane Zydeco. Jr. Plays the washboard....amazing! He is also a great all around performer. There were lots of food stalls and the aroma of oyster po’boys wafted over us. I just could not eat another thing.
Home by 8 or so and in bed by nine!
Jon, John and Robert
Rockin Dopsie, Jr.
