"The Dew Drop Inn — the iconic Central City nightclub, hotel, and restaurant that’s hosted the likes of Tina Turner, James Brown, and Ray Charles — has made a triumphant return to New Orleans after its 2005 closure. Curtis Doucette, Jr. is the new name behind the Dew Drop, and his aunt, chef Marilyn Doucette of Meals from the Heart Cafe, is at the helm of the restaurant. Seated breakfast and lunch are served from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m, with weekend brunch from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. (standard on Satudays; live jazz brunch Sundays), with menus featuring dishes like grits and grillades; classic egg blackstone with hollandaise; bananas Foster French toast; and hot sandwiches, seafood plates, and salads for lunch. A succinct cocktail list, beer, wine, and bubbly are also on offer." - Clair Lorell, Justine Jones, Eater Staff
