While bartending a while back at a restaurant on Magazine St., a gentleman
walked in, sat at the bar and ordered a glass of lemonade. His momentary visit inside to escape the summer
heat turned into a discussion about neighborhood restaurants and dining in New Orleans that lasted several
hours. It wasn't long before he introduced himself as Kevin R. Roberts, the author of the popular New Orleans Neighborhood
Restaurant Guide. Before he left the restaurant that day, he gave me a copy, which he momentarily "borrowed
back" to give Kate Hudson (who was sitting at the bar with us) a quiz about New Orleans, titled "Giddy About Go Cups (The
Tourist Test)" found in the back of the book.
What I soon discovered was a book packed with un-biased commentary and
photos of the some of the best neighborhood restaurants in New Orleans. I am on my journey through the book to dine
at each of the restaurants and I suggest you do the same. Whether you are a lifelong resident or visiting for the
weekend, there isn't a better book to consult for honest and entertaining advice on dining in New Orleans.

The retail price is $7.50 and shipping and handling is $1.49 for a total
