Taste of New Orleans

I recently had the opportunity to make a quick run to New Orleans. This was the first time I'd been back to the Crescent City post-Katrina, and ironically enough, I was there on the 4-year-anniversary of what is probably known as the worst natural disaster to wreak havoc on the U.S. in recorded history. I noticed some differences from my pre-Katrina visits: the demographics were different, many businesses have yet to re-open, and the City seemed to be more quiet, humbled. Even still, there is so much to absorb - sight, sound and most importantly, taste! I really do intend to go back when I have a lot more time, but I did manage to grab a few photos. (When do you want to go, Carrie?! We have to hit up some cemeteries!!)
