Tuesday w/Veggies, Joan of Arc & Lots of Music!

Good morning everybody and happy Tuesday!

Farmer's Market!

You can get your day started off right with a trip to the Farmer's Market!!!  Visit the Crescent City's Farmer's Market at University Square (200 Broadway) from 9:00 to 1:00 pm.  After wowing us last week, Domenica is back with another equally impressive menu: grilled spring onion, romanesco and goat cheese bruschetta, grilled shrimp with fresh corn, fava bean and cherry tomato salad, chicken liver and onion frittata, buttermilk chocolate cupcakes with blackberries, and peach, blueberry, basil and mint aqua fresca. Swing by the market this Tuesday and pick up lunch, or dinner!

Special Event!

Exhibit of Joan of Arc Statues opens today at the Ursulines Convent with an Artist Reception from 5:00 to 8:00 pm (In honor of Joan's lifting of the Siege of Orleans - May 8, 1429)! A new exhibit of photographs of Joan of Arc statues taken throughout France by native New Orleans Alex Labry. This event is free and open to the public and the display will continue until the end of June 2012.

Good Music Tonight!

And there's a great evening on the Avenue....Cause it's another lovely southern night for porch sitting and music over at the The Columns (3811 St. Charles Ave.)...Have a fancy cocktail and listen to the guitar stylings of John Rankin!

Head on over to Mid-City and to Chickie Wah Wah (2828 Canal)!  They've got the Sweet Olive String Band at 5:00 pm, and be sure to stay on for Tommy Malone on guitar and Bill Malchow on piano at 8:00 pm - come hungry for delicious pizza, pasta, salads and more!!

Right down the street the Spotted Cat (623 Frenchmen) has a double header with no cover - Andy Forest at 4:00 pm, Tuba Skinny at 6:00 pm, and top off the evening with Meschiya Lake & The Little Big Horns at 10:00 pm!

End your night over at the Maple Leaf Bar on Oak Street...with  the Grammy Award winning REBIRTH Brass Band they come on around 10:30ish - there's a cover, but you'll be glad you paid and stayed up late!!
