Eating New Orleans dry...

I'm currently working part-time at the Metairie Country Club.. I own my own business so I'm very busy, but whenever I can, I try to get over there and help out. Thanks for the recs!

La Provence

I haven't tried it since the take over but I've heard a lot of good things. Chef Steve McHugh is running it and I've seen him in action at Rest August, he's more than capable.

I have eaten at Madinas, Theos, Camellia, and Dragos...

Yeah I've been there.. Good food and nice place.. I liked it but nothing mind-blowing though.

Eating New Orleans dry...

Yes I know about the 800+ restaurants in the city (I prefer quality over quantity.. a lot of the restaurants are good, just gotta find them right? ) As for your list... Those are great restaurants! I have been to a few of them now that you mention it. Iris and Alberta both have good solid food.. Domilse's Po' Boys are pretty damn tasty. I've also been to La Boca and Vega, I enjoyed it.. Marigny isnt too bad either.. Never been to Fire or Adolfo's (been wanting to try it though).. and never heard of Lola? And I did read something about Atchafalaya today in the paper... maybe I'll try it out. Thanks for the recs!

This is my first post here on Chowhound!

I'm a chef here in New Orleans and I know a lot of the chefs around the city.. But I feel like I'm eating the city dry. I've eaten everywhere and everything.. Vietnamese, Creole, Cajun, French, Italian, Poboys, Crawfish, Pizzas... etc..

List of Places I've already eaten: (off the top of my head)
Stella, August, La Provence, Cochon, Herbsaint, Bayonna, K Pauls, GwFins, La Petite Grocery, Pho Tau Bay, Tanh Dinh, Kims, 9 Roses, Frosty's, Mother's, Zoe, Cafe Du Monde, Morning Call, Puccinos, Zea, Cuvee, Palace Cafe, Kanno, Rock n Sake, Horinoya, Sake, Dragos, Muriels, Baccos, Andreas... ok I'm going to cut it off there. It was getting obnoxious.. lol

Anyways... Any recommendations? I'm tired of the same ol' food, and I know that the menus are constantly changing but I'm in search of something new.. Anything?
