Aldolfo's

We went to the NEA convention - I bought a cowrie shell ring, tiny turquoise earrings and an orange dress. We walked the wrong way down St. Charles for 2 1/2 miles, ended up taking a taxi to the convention center. We had gumbo at the mall and walked back to the hotel. Later I rode my bike to Borders 2 1/2 miles. Bill rode around for 2 hours and got rained on trying to find Adolfo's which we eventually found thanks to Trip Advisor. Oh my gosh the meal was fabulous! Adolfo's advertises as Cajun Italian food. You will not be impressed by the ambiance - it is a little more than a shack on the second floor. Our first trip here four years ago I saw a roach crawling on the wall, jump down on to our table and I kept eating that's how good this place is! You will not find grades in the window, cause this place most certainly would get a C or even a D in Los Angeles. But it is worth it! Bill had veal in their signature fish sauce and I had the Fish Missy, the fish was escobar. Bill ordered the frog leg appetizer -- pass! We even had the same waiter from four years ago who said he remembered us! Sure he does! But he was very sweet and shook I our hands and thanked us for coming to the restaurant.
