I look for good food and things to see and do that are unique to the area.
New Orleans, for example. The French Quarter is interesting. I like the food, art, and street music. But it's also nice to see the bayous. Lake Pontchartrain. Plantations and oak trees. Trucks full of sugar cane driving down the road. People fishing in lawn chairs at the side of the road.
Or taking a tour of a destroyer in July. Sunny, 95 degrees, and like 115% humidity. Those nice thick metal walls absorb it all. AC in only one corner of the ship. That sweet-ass Southern iced tea feels just right after that. Gator meat isn't bad either.
You can also go uptown for the actual good food
Any favorites that you would recommend off the top of your head? I'm open to any kind of food.
Well, I'm only gonna recommend local delicacies.
I also stop at Adams St. Grocery during King Cake season - as early as I can! - for cake & also a few lunches.
Thanks!
