We're starving. Shopping is hard work! Shayna & I luckily found a fantastic diner – Slim Goodies – while walking down Magazine Street, a popular shopping street stretching miles from Uptown down to the French Quarter. There are clothing boutiques, art galleries, bakeries, specialty shops, and even a brass shop. The brass shop has all things brass. Just imagine...toilet paper holders, door knobs, canes, hooks, and miniature animals. Not sure what I would do with any brass items, but everything was finely crafted and the lion door knockers were tempting. I have earrings like that that come out for special occasions.
The inappropriately named dish, Jewish Coonass, was delicious. It was New York Jewish inspired meal meets New Orleans: a stack of potato latkes covered with sauteed spinach, easy-over eggs, and crawfish etouffee. DELISH! Etouffee is traditionally a creamy shellfish dish thickened by flour and served over rice. Ours was a lighter, buttery version. Our waitress was covered in glitter, probably leftover from Mardi Gras the day before. Or maybe that's just her thing.
TO THE POINT:
The bathroom at this diner was unique, to say the least. One bathroom, two toilets side by side, both with their own toilet paper stands. No dividing stalls. High five to whomever uses it with a buddy!
