Eatin Good in the Hood

So, since moving here, Rob and I have had a great opportunity to do what we like to do best together: eat.  We have tried a ton of new places (most were very, very awesome).  We like to watch the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives show and that's taken us to some great places.  Ones that we've been to so far on there:


Joey K's.  We went here before we saw this on the show.  It was awesome! Rob got a pot roast and I had chicken cordon bleu and we really can't wait to go back.  So many restaurants, so little time and dollars.  This place is within walking distance, so definitely will return.


Mahony's.  Rob and I walked here the other night to get some po boys.  Rob got a po boy with french fries, cheddar and pot roast gravy.  I had the root beer glazed ham and cheese.  We split a piece of the sweet potato pie that the show on the clip.  Overall, it was pretty good!


Katie's.  Hands down my favorite, and Rob's favorite as well.  We had the garlic feta fries and then the Bordreaux pizza.  We were unable to finish all of the pizza, but wow was it great.  We are dying to go back here - Thursdays is $10 pizza night, so this is definitely going to happen in the future.  The only down side is that we have to drive there, but so worth it.

We have been to many other places and have a huge list of places to try still! We have only had fast food once since moving here in May, which is impressive.  We cook a lot, but it's nice having so many options to eat (especially within walking distance) that are local and (more importantly) delicious.  Thankfully, the workout regime is still in effect, so no New Orleans gut is appearing (yet).
