Raise a glass to “the official cocktail of New Orleans” at the Sazerac House museum. Sidestep onto Gravier Street to sneak a peek at the wiener-shaped Lucky Dog pushcarts, made famous in “A Confederacy of Dunces,” then take a stroll through the Eliza Jane hotel’s cool lobby and courtyard, carved out of seven historic warehouses.
Get the day underway with breakfast and bloody marys at the Ruby Slipper. Couvant’s menu focus is full-on French—steak tartare, Lyonnaise salads, moules frites. At the Chophouse it’s all about USDA prime beef and seasonal stone crabs.
Open 24/7, the Everything Shoppe lives up to its moniker with everything from convenience-store staples and tacky souvenirs to a huge selection of booze and wine. Bag a few signature glasses from the Sazerac House, before checking out the easy-breezy women’s wear at Farrah’s.
In addition to rentals, Buzz NOLA offers guided electric-bike tours and weekend nighttime rides on blinged-out cruisers. Hang with the hipsters at the Eliza Jane’s atrium bar, or grab a local brew with the service-industry crowd at the aptly named Little Bar on Gravier.
