"There are so many reasons to love Bayou Bar in the Pontchartrain Hotel, from the intimate pub’s outstanding live jazz to its menu of excellent American eats, including a fine burger, satisfying red beans, dirty rice and fried catfish on a bun. Bayou Bar will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mardi Gras day. The hotel’s coffee shop, Silver Whistle, will be serving coffee and breakfast from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m." - Beth D'Addono
