Hey Everybody,
A little late this Wednesday, but have a fun one!
Do you want to meet some Saintsations?? Of course you do...and today is the day!! The Royal Sonesta Hotel will host the official unveiling of the Saintsations 2011 Swimsuit Calendar......you are invited to join the Saintsations in a traditional Second-Line parade led by the Storyville Stompers Brass Band. Cheer on the ladies as they depart the Royal Sonesta Hotel promptly at 6:00 pm, and join in the fun as they roll through the French Quarter with Saints' mascots Gumbo and Sir Saint!!
It's another Wednesday on the Point from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., and of course, admission is FREE..Take the ferry right over to the concert tonight and head to the Algiers Ferry Dock (200 Morgan) for MyNameIsJohnMichael with Mykia Jovan Duo for Back to School fun! Click the above link for complete concert series info!
And it's the Riverbend Tapas Crawl from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Along with Barcelona Tapas, participating restaurants include Brigtsen's Restaurant (723 Dante St.), Dante's Kitchen (736 Dante St.), Hana (8116 Hampson St.), and Jazmine Cafe (614 S. Carrolton), all of which are located within two blocks of each other. For the Crawl, you'll find the same format at each stop: Order at the bar, or at another specified area, hand over $5 and you get a tapa-sized dish...plus a short glass of wine. Bring cash to keep it simple...There's no itinerary, so diners are encouraged to wander from place to place...Hoping this inaugural event will be the start to tapas tradition in NOLA!!
