Guidebook for New Orleans
Food Scene
Known as the Bywater's best kept secret - really great menu (get the market fish), fun bar (ask for Candice!), and there's a pool. The cover charge for the pool varies, but its cheaper on weekdays. Saturdays (especially during drag brunch) and Sundays are very crowded so make a reservation if you're dining.
