My wife is a fanatic for antiques and insists on going with me as often as possible. She just can’t afford them. I go for the charbrioled oysters, although we have to travel to Metairie for them (Drago’s).
I can’t afford them either! But I love to look in the little shops. My husband is into the oysters (although I like them in a po’boy) and I’m into their coffee. And some of the smaller hotels in the Quarter are exquisite.
