Category: Romantic Author: Jody

Where to Eat...

Breakfast

Stop in and try Stanley on Jackson Square. The classic diner style restaurant brings great cuisine and a casual atmosphere to the previously lacking French Quarter breakfast scene.

Lunch

Spend a romantic lunch in the lush, courtyard setting of Cafe Amelie. Located on beautiful Royal Street, Cafe Amelie serves a great mix of traditional lunch favorites û try the Oysters Amelie for a real treat!

Dinner

Away from the hustle and bustle of Bourbon Street, follow the scent of garlic to St. Philip and find Irene's Cuisine. A local favorite, Irene's specializes in Provincial French and Italian cooking in a romantic setting.

What to Do...

Morning

Watch the sun rise over the "West Bank". Find a great spot at one of the many benches lining the river walk as the sun comes up over Algiers and the Mississippi River.

Afternoon

No romantic trip to New Orleans would be complete without a visit to the Botanical Gardens at City Park. Take an easy ride on the Canal/City Park streetcar to the end of the line and wander around the beautiful and relaxing gardens, including a stunning rose garden set beneath the limbs of ancient Live Oak trees.

Evening

Nothing could be more romantic that a nighttime Mule and Buggy tour through the French Quarter. Forgo the big group trips and, instead, opt for a private buggy with your own driver. Let the clip-clop of the hooves as you amble up and down the narrow streets of the Vieux Carre take you back to a bygone era of old New Orleans.

Late Night

Comments

New Orleans is a city made for romance. From gourmet restaurants to fascinating museums; from the delicate "iron lace" balconies to the steamboats rolling up and down the Mississippi River; from antique shops and art galleries to fun, funky gift shops; New Orleans is open for business and as beautiful as ever.
