The 25 Best Restaurants In New Orleans - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"Our lives can be split into two distinct time periods: before we tried the turkey neck appetizer at Café Reconcile, and after. These crispy, caramelized hunks of fall-off-the-bone poultry are worth a visit alone, but you should definitely throw in a fried chicken plate, too—theirs is one of the best in the city. Café Reconcile is only open for lunch, and it’s a pretty big space where you can almost always find a table. We also love the mission behind the restaurant: they support and employ at-risk young adults by providing culinary training and personal development." - chelsea brasted, zella palmer, carlo mantuano, megan braden perry
