"Black checkered floors, a Coke machine, walk-up counters for ordering, and no dining tables don’t make for anything fancy, but McKenzie’s Chicken in a Box is a local favorite serving crunchy fried chicken that’s never greasy. This inexpensive grab-and-go spot is as good as it gets." - Beth D’Addono
"If you’re heading to the parade from the Gentilly area, I recommend McKenzie’s Chicken In A Box (3829 Frenchmen) as the best parade fried chicken — a Gentilly staple singled out for parade-day eats." - Eater Staff
"Order from Meat Mama Leighann Smith for some of the best house cured and butchered meats in town. Piece of Meat offers the likes of the Delicate Lady, a kick ass smoked local chicken salad with a blueberry barbecue sauce and a smoked pastrami on rye with coleslaw and havarti. Get the boudin eggrolls too — you’re welcome." - Beth D’Addono
"The talented chefs behind New Orleans’s acclaimed butcher shop are keeping their dining room closed for now, but offering curbside pickup for top-notch cuts of beef, pork, and poultry; smoked meats and sausages; dry goods and condiments; and beer and wine more for all your Memorial Day needs. Order online for pickup on Friday and Saturday." - Clair Lorell
"Leighann Smith is one badass butcher. Come into the shop and cafe she runs with partner Daniel Jackson, and you might find her wrangling a goat or making some particularly spiced sausages. Piece of Meat takes pride in working with farmers that raise animals humanely and responsibly. Start with the boudin egg rolls oozing pepper jack, then move into a serious meat board, butcher’s choice. Try to save room for the smoked tri tip cheesesteak." - Beth D’Addono
