The Best People Watching Spots in New Orleans

"Although Port of Call is home to a killer burger and excellent baked potato on the edge of the Quarter, the people watching is outside the restaurant. Hungry crowds queue up for hours, a head scratcher to locals allergic to waiting on line for grub. Never mind, the waiters can be entertaining, fueled by potent margaritas and monsoons, the bar’s version of a hurricane." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
