Last day in the Big Easy. We went out to get a few gifts and tee shirts and made it back to the hotel by about 10 AM. Deb announced that she wanted to spend a bit of time at the roof top pool. The wheels started turning, and my plan was hatched. More crawfish at the local market, Rouse's. Knowing that they put them out , steaming hot at 11AM, I was there a little early, almost giddy at the thought that something I had only fantasized about for almost 3 years, was about to come to fruition. I went to the little salad / olive bar and got, among other things, some pickled okra, grabbed a cold Dos Equis, and waited patiently for the mud bugs to emerge from behind the scenes.
They opened my beer at the coffee bar, and I found a table in the food court, a happy man indeed! These were "field run" , but a little discretion with the scoop paid off.
These were steaming hot and perfectly seasoned. Total tab: $7.46.
