Bass player at Arnaud's

I dined with a friend at
one the finer establishments
I've had a pleasure to visit
in New Orleans, Arnaud's.
Although abutting it,
Arnaud's is a world away from
Bourbon Street's vulgar tackiness.
It is also home to the wonderful
French 75 bar, whose superb
cocktails are lovingly prepared
by the great mixologist,
Chris Hannah.

They make an excellent
Sazerac at the Napoleon House
in New Orleans and it's a charming
establishment...located kitty-korner
from the Louisiana State Supreme Court.

Ollie O'Shea

When we walked into the
Green Mill, this guy and his
band were playing a favorite
tune of mine- "Wah-Hoo",
written by the elusive Cliff Friend.

storied Green Mill on the North Side...

Belly Dancer

Besides hookahs, Juliana's
also features belly-dancers...
this amazing specimen, and
I don't really do her justice,
hails from Brazil!

at the loads-of-fun Juliana's,
an Assyrian niteclub.

Charlie's Ale House

My current little sketchbook
has lots of pictures drawn in
saloons.
