Babs - Review - Bywater - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"New Orleans is full of elite neighborhood restaurants, but few of them are as good as Babs. The bistro, which is the sister restaurant to Compere Lapin, focuses its space and menu on warmth and big flavors. Blackened octopus, for example, might come atop a sweet potato coconut puree, or you might find andouille mixed in with the spaghetti carbonara. Regardless of what you order, the restaurant is perfect for almost any stage of your night. It's the place to catch up with a friend over a glass of wine at the bar, or to bring your parents when you want to introduce them to the best of the Bywater." - Chelsea Brasted
