And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
No it’s not a chain restaurant. It opened sometime in the 1920’s and closed last September. The food was great. It was on St. Charles Ave in New Orleans
I was forced to go to NOLA three or four times a year on business for about three decades and all of y'all what wants the French Quarter are welcome to it, but not me. Couple-three years ago, a buddy texted me a pic of him down there wearing a t-shirt, gym shorts and flip-flops. I immediately counseled him to go back to the hotel and put on adult shooz lest he catch a dose of something that would rot his toes off. He poo-pooed my advice and two days later texted me from urgent care where he was being treated for infected feet. True story.
NOLA, hated the place. Big holes in the pavement where your supposed to walk, tripped on one. Everyone states how friendly the place is..what a joke. Not one business where I asked to use the restroom to check my injuries helped. The police were not help either, ask for directions to the hotel & person sent me 6 blocks the wrong way. Knee was really swollen by the time I got back. Homes were rotting and moldy. Stopped into a McDonalds to get lunch and use restroom staff would not give "tokens" to restroom till I ordered food. Not a clean place, crappy service. NOLA is crapville except for Cafe Du monde, coffee sucks but Beignets were great.
It's a chain restaurant. Where's this one located?
