thanks for the info guys.
last time i was there i hit prudone's (badly spelled i'm sure) rest. K Pauls. it was good..but didn't blow me away

so far the places have been a little touristy

for dinner i would absolutely go to jacque-imo's, it's uptown on oak st i believe, not dressy or anything, i think its the best restaurant in the city (I've eaten at all the other places mentioned)

for dinner downtown i like palace cafe a lot, its owned by the same people as commanders, but i think the atmosphere is better and the menu is a little more eclectic, i recommend the lobster cheesecake

Mr B's is great for BBQ shrimp

Susan spicer has a relatively new place called Cobalt that is supposedly very good, ive never been

have lunch at Martin's Wine-Cellar, it's uptown on baronne, the sandwiches are fantastic and my wine loving friends tell me the bottle selection is good too (if you're into that)

I really like the turtle soup at K Pauls.

That's my absolute favorite place to eat! The others mentioned are fine but you have to get to Jacque's-Imo's. It looks like a dump, but but it's great Nawlin's cooking.

I second the motion for Mother's, and also add the Camellia Grill for breakfast or late night food.

Pascal's Manale was real good the time i ate there. plus as an added bonus it was one of hunter s. thompson's favorite places to eat in n.o. (according to rolling stone).
