will be in Baton Rouge (et noir) next week

We need to narrow things down a bit. Unless some one has a better suggestion we are considering:

Mansur's

Juban's

Maison Lacour

Galatoire's Bistro

Parrain's

unfortunately we will only be dining one night (Friday) so can choose only one.

Juban's and Mansour's are my old sentimental favorites. I haven't been to the Galatoire's Bistro, so I can't offer any info....might be worth a shot, though.

We wound up at Mansur's and enjoyed it very much. The food was very good although my duck was slightly over-cooked and appeared to have been under the heat lamp just a tad too long. Service was, to put it bluntly, flaky. The girl was as sweet as could be but had to return to the table several times b/c she had mis-understood some thing or forgotten some thing or they were out of some thing and she forgot to tell us, &c, &c, &c. As I said, flaky. The wine list was good and not over-priced (surprisingly) the sommelier spent a lot of time at our table and, of course, we talked "shop". He was very proud of his list and w/ good reason.

Plans were to hit Juban's on Saturday after the game but we were so exhausted and spent that we just went back to the hotel and "vegged".
