Herbsaint | Restaurant Review | New Orleans | Frommers.com |
 | | Herbsaint -- that would be the locally made pastis found in, among other places, the popular local cocktail, the Sazerac -- was one of the first (if not the first) restaurants to reopen in the CBD. |
 | | As a restaurant, it's an alternative to similarly inventive, but much higher priced peers in the Quarter (here the entrees are mostly comfortably under $20), and its chef was just nominated for a James Beard award. |
 | | Be sure to try the Herbsaint, tomato, and shrimp bisque -- it sent us into rhapsodies, and we aren't even soup fans -- and the "small plate" of shrimp with green-chile grits ("Not as good as Uglisech's," says one NOLA foodie, invoking the name of a legendary local seafood joint, "but a close second."). |
