I'd prefer the latter...home cooked dishes in an old house "down the bayou"...why? First of all, the food would probably be better (sorry...as great as the restaurants in New Orleans are, there's nothing as good as "native" food cooked with love)...the company would be beyond interesting, and just think of all the great recipes and food lore I'd be able to gather! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
