Despite All-Day Bacon Happy Hour, The Flying Pig Has Shuttered | Eater New Orleans

"I learned that an all-day bacon happy hour couldn’t save the Flying Pig Cafe, which closed after a four-and-a-half-month run serving Southern-inspired, family-friendly food; a sign on the door read, "...due to forces beyond our control, we are now closed. Take care and have a good 2018." Opened September 1 by husband-and-wife team Rob and Katina "Kat" Vance, the menu leaned heavily on pork and included wraps, Cubanos, dishes with Caribbean and Asian influences, and the self-proclaimed "best damn mac and cheese you've ever had." On Fridays the restaurant ran an all-day bacon happy hour with drink specials and unlimited, free bacon. Rob Vance was formerly executive chef at the Ruby Slipper and Creole Cuisine Restaurant Concepts, and Kat Vance is a radio DJ at classic rock station Bayou 95.7; there is no news yet on Rob Vance’s plans or what may move into the space." - Stephanie Carter
