Some old standards and some new places. Makes me crave the Great NOLA Food!

For some reason Travel and Food Magazines pick up places to write about that everyone knows about.  They don't know about Parkway Bakery, Italian Barrell, Tracey's, Coop's, Johnny's, Mena's, Cooter Brown's, Trolley Stop Cafe, Adolpho's, Mahoney's, Casamento's, Lilette, Drago's et al.  Most of the places in this magazine article are highly known joints that have been around a long time.  They are all outstanding but there are over 1,000 restaurants in NOLA and many have never been heard of.  Rue 127 is a good new one.
