Mother's serves some po boy dat make you slap yo mama... jus don' espec no special treatment from da "girls" behind de counter!

Galitoires is back open as well.

As for churches in New Orleans, good luck. Bro. Parker's is in Metairie and is a good church. I am not sure of the status of Bro. Cupit's church. Bro. Bryan's on the North Shore in Slidell is a good church.

The only church I have been to in Louisiana was in Bogalusa when I was a little girl. I don't even think we ever went through New Orleans.

Mike Lollard is also in Metairie pastors a good church.

We were through there in July and most of the resturants are open. Mothers is a MUST!

I've never been to New Orleans and have thought about making a short
excursion there. Of course New Orleans is famous for it's food among other
things. What restaraunts would you recommend? I would really like to eat
some good cajun food. Some gumbo sounds really good.
Also, if I stayed over on a Sunday, what churches in the New Orleans or
Southern Mississippi area would you recommend.

Yes....first stop Disneyland....then drive down the coast of S Cal to Sea World. Take a boat out to Catalina then fly back to NO if you want

Cafe Maspero is a must ........ have ssen it many times with lines to the end of the block waiting to get in ...... The prices are great, the food is great ..... just remember it is a cash only establishment

While I was working in New Orleans I frequented this establishment several nights a week.
