Iconic Food
This afternoon we walked to Bywater and went to Frady's One Stop for a plate lunch and a sandwich. It's a popular cheap eats place that was apparently featured on a Netflix show. It's a tiny place with a daily special. Donna got the Red Beans and Rice Plate Special and I got a quarter muffuletta.

Preservation Hall
After an afternoon of relaxing we walked over to
Preservation Hall . We had tickets for an early show. Preservation Hall is an iconic Jazz Venue that has 3 or 4 shows a night and cranks 100 or so people through a 45 minute set. It is no frills, you get a bench seat if you pay for it or you stand and there are no bathrooms and no drink service. It is a very unique experience. The show was great and it was a fun experience even though it was very different. On the way we stopped at Leah's Pralines, a confectionary institution here in NOLA. They make their own Pralines so they are fresh. Pralines are pecans in a melt of sugar and cream sort of between the sugar and the caramel range. They were very good.

| We had to walk down Bourbon Street so I took a photo of Neon. |
 |
| They didn't allow photos inside during the show so this will have to do |
That's it for today. If you missed yesterday's post you can find it
