cane and table

came & table by far would be my personal favourite restaurant in new orleans, it’s cozy nice ambience dimly lit with a historically southern feel. they have outside seating as well but because it was december we obviously sat indoors. it’s a very unexpected cocktail bar & restaurant in the middle of all the hustle and bustle of the french quarters, therefore definitely it stands out for me.

theplaceis famous and recommended for its cocktail bar and bartenders, they are very professional, friendly and know their poison well. happy hours run till 6pm where they have a separate menu which has drinks under 6$ and you can grab small bites for the same. we tried their absent star, brazilian hardwood, reveille cocktail and the basic jd on rocks. all these cocktails were just perfectly made with right proportions of ingredients, if only i could drink them all i would have.
as for the food we had, crispy brussels sprout, black eye pea hummus, crab chips. for mains we ordered roasted cauliflower, boneless prime ribeye and the gulf fish.
the dishes that i would recommend for a must have is definitely their crispy brussels sprouts i mean they were just the best i have ever had, i actually came back to thisplacethe next day just to have this dish and cocktails.

overall experience was amazing because of the staff, the bartenders, food, drinks the ambience. thisplaceis totally worth a visit.

this is another great recommendation from our buddy mark (so we decided to stop by after venturing to coop’splacefor our fried chicken).  we came here during an awkward time… well after lunch and too early for dinner.  so they were only serving small plates. we ordered: peas n rice  ($9) – island peas. local andouille sausage. rice. crispy rum ribs ($17) – p ork. el dorado 3-yr rum. papaya chutney. sambal. avocado salad  ($14) – avocado. jerked crab fingers. pecan smoked salt. marinated cherry tomatoes we knew thisplacewould be good since our friend, mark, had been spot on with his recommendations but we didn’t anticipate how good. the peas n rice small plate was not what we expected…  basically it looked like beans.  we were thinking… did we get the wrong order?  oh well because the beans were bomb!  so flavorful! the avocado salad was refreshing! exactly what we needed for our crispy ribs and beans. last but absolutely not least, the real mvp–the deep-fried ribs. yep. deep-fried. ribs.  fell off the bone.  great sauce that smacks you in the face.  everything i wanted these to be. like i said, we knew thisplacewould be good.  we just didn’t expect thisplaceto serve the most memorable dish of the trip! food:  everything we ordered was excellent!  we can’t stop talking about the ribs! ambience:  we sat in the courtyard area.  super cute spot especially on a warm day.  bar is chic.  dark woods, distressed walls with some exposed brick and emerald-green accents.  we dig it. service:   service with a smile is always a good sign. overall:  ribs were spectacular!  no, thisplaceis not the cheapest but well worth it in my opinion.  some people will have a heart attack when they read $17 for 6 baby ribs… but trust me, they are a must try. get ready for some mind explosion.
