My Last Meal

There really is nothing better than having a great meal with great people. After a week in New Orleans for spring break, our group decided to go have one last outstanding meal before we made our trek back to Denver where Sodexo inevitably awaits. This was one of the best steak houses in New Orleans that was recommended by our friend who grew up there. We were told to order the our favorite filet; they promised it would be second to none. As if the modest yet sophisticated atmosphere weren't enough, they more than kept their promise on the food. The bacon wrapped filet was so well done that all ten people were speechless from the service, atmosphere, and the food itself. Maybe it was just the timing of this amazing meal, but it was definitely one that I will remember for a long time.This steak was so tender and enjoyable I'm not sure that any other steak would be par with this piece of steak. The potatoes and bottled coke were a great addition to an unbelievable experience as well.  Southern hospitality is a real thing. These people made one of the most impressive, flavorful steaks I can remember. The sight of a ton of your friends frantically eating an amazing meal so as to catch a flight that departs in less than an hour also added to the memorable experience. The fact that an establishment can make something like this meal is definitely an interesting thought, and I am happy that I was privileged enough to be able to enjoy it. Overall, this meal was an awesome experience that I will remember for many years to come. Well done New Orleans, well done.

  2. I don't know if you have been to Elawy's Steak House in Cherry Creek, but this sounds a lot like it. If you're parents come out to visit I suggest going to eat there on their dime.
