Best Dishes and Cocktails Eater Editors Had in NOLA This Week | Eater New Orleans

"Eater’s 2024 Best New Restaurant for NOLA and recently reviewed by the New York Times, this restaurant impresses on several fronts: an intriguing wine and cocktail list, punchy and robust raw dishes, and surprising stunners such as a humble sweet potato given main-character energy with peanut mole, turmeric, and lime. “Dessert is usually the least exciting part of a meal for me, but here, it’s the dish that seems to be lingering in my memory the longest. Tres leches cake gets a more robust, substantive quality with the use of masa, and mango adds an assertive tartness for balance. The flavor of the cake seems to change a bit with the seasons — the peach version on the menu currently seems a good enough excuse as any to revisit this special place.” — Missy Frederick, Eater cities director." - Henna Bakshi
