Mosquito Supper Club Chef Expands With New Restaurant Saint Claire | Eater New Orleans
"Larry Morrow, whose goal is to have "the largest Black-owned restaurant group in the country," opened his company’s fifth restaurant on July 5, premiering a Creole–Caribbean fusion spot on the corner of Frenchmen Street and Esplanade Avenue during Essence Fest. The 200-seat restaurant exudes an island vibe, using thatching, a dining-room mango tree, and an expansive patio anchored by a central fountain. Culinary director Jordan Lindsey created an "irie" menu with specialties like jerked chicken, crawfish beignets, and a mango-fueled island salad. Since he and his mother, Lenora Chong, opened their first restaurant in 2018, the company’s portfolio has grown to include Morrow Steak, Monday Restaurant and Bar, Sun Chong, as well as two nightclubs, Hide/Seek and Treehouse." - Beth D’Addono
