"Breakaway’s R & B, opened by Paul and Olivia Artigues, is located in the former address of Lost Love Lounge in the Marigny. The restaurant offers New Orleans staples and daily plates inspired by local and family traditions, such as gumbo, beef daube sandwich, crawfish etouffee, fried shrimp, and white beans with ham hock. There are also vegan and vegetarian options like vegan gumbo and mushroom fritters. The restaurant serves one dessert to start: Earl Grey calas. The drinks menu features sno-ball cocktails and a full bar. It opens on January 27 and operates from noon to midnight, Thursday through Monday." - Clair Lorell
