I’m a big fan of Liuzza’s on Bienville too but I understand they are under new management. Not as much of a poboy place but love those schooners of beer and killer food too. 

Oh yeah I’ve been several times since the new ownership (and quasi-seriously entertained the idea of buying it at the time). I wouldn’t say that anything has changed much, they just modernized the kitchen and got rid of the gambling corner for another table. They also stuck with the patio tables they began during COVID, which we’ve enjoyed.

Agree on Ruby Slipper.  It's still a quality brunch stop, and the Bloody Mary is a wonderful hair of the dog to start the day.  I probably posted a picture of my brunch fare several pages back.

Despite being a chain and the existence of several other solid brunch spots in town, there's always a decent line when it opens, so unless you get there early, expect a bit of a wait.

I'm an early riser (even when boozing) but NOLA is one of those cases where I'm ok with a line at a restaurant.  We'd probably just grab to-gos from the liquor store next to our hotel and get the HOTD rolling on the commute.

My days will start with getting up early (6AMish) and either running around the Garden District or hitting the eliptical/weights in the hotel workout room to sweat the hangover out.  An old trick I learned growing up on a farm.  Sweat profusely, coffee, shower, eye opener.  Feel like a new man.

Plowing the wife first thing in the morning is also good for a hangover.  Trust me, I'm a lawyer.

The best poboys I've had in years were at Liuzza by the Track, when I was there a couple of months ago. It's not in the Garden District, but well worth the 15 minute uber to the Fairgrounds. BBQ shrimp poboy is the GOAT for me, and their other poboys were incredible as well.

Finally made it there last May and it might be my favorite spot for poboys now.
