Going to see our daughter at end of month in River Ridge, just outside of NO. My daughter sent my wife a warning about not bringing only open toed shoes because of the mess you walk thru on Bourbon St. I doubt we'll be spending much time down there but that made me think maybe I should ask for peoples advice on whatever your experience is since I've never been. My daughter and her boyfriend are foodies and she's lining up some places to go and things to do, just wanted other comments, thanks!
