From ‘I Play Rocky’ to ‘Sterling Point,’ how Jay Duplass went from a Metairie youth to a Hollywood star

When Jay Duplass took the stage to give his acceptance speech for winning the Celluloid Hero Award at the New Orleans Film Society gala last week, he made sure to say, “I grew up in New Metairie — it’s the part that’s not old, not particularly soulful, and definitely not elegant.”

This No-Nonsense New Orleans, Louisiana, Counter Has Been Serving Classic Po-Boys Since 1922

Every single week, a kitchen in Louisiana slow-cooks more than 1,000 pounds of roast beef and stirs up over 50 gallons of gravy. That’s not a typo, and it’s not a holiday special either. Put that into perspective for a second: all that gravy has one main job, which is soaking straight into a loaf of French bread.

New book ‘compassionately captures’ 1980s AIDS crisis in New Orleans throughout 18 stories

“Skylark,” by William Christy Smith, University of Louisiana at Lafayette Press, 246 pages. I’m a sucker for novels set in 1980s New Orleans, a time and place that shaped my earliest years but which I was far too young to fully absorb. Such is the case with William...

Two New Orleans 'Lion King' Broadway stars missed home: 'Grateful to be back'

New Orleans natives Jennifer Theriot, 35, and Vernon Brooks III, 28, have spent years living out of a few suitcases and a trunk. Touring with Disney’s Broadway musical “The Lion King” means packing light with vacuum-sealed clothes. But there is always room in the luggage for a...

We Ranked 11 Louisiana Restaurants With Mississippi River Views Worth Savoring

One Louisiana barbecue spot starts serving breakfast at 3:30 in the morning. That’s before most roosters bother to clock in. Grab a seat outside, and big ships drift past just over the levee. Another river town spot opens at 4 a.m. for Cajun barbecue. Some of us can barely find the coffee pot by then.

Is Vampire Café ghoulishly good or a gimmick? Here’s what I thought as a New Orleans native.

It wasn’t the flimsy blood bags flowing with ‘fangria,’ the paper bats dangling from chandeliers or the obscure psychedelic music blaring overheard that first caught my attention at New Orleans Vampire Cafe. It was, rather, the people there. The host stood in front of a snaking line...

This Louisiana Country Market Packs Fresh Produce, Boudin, Cracklins And Homemade Treats

A whole roadside business grew out of a 5-acre strawberry patch and the back of a pickup truck. That alone makes me smile. Now the same family sells boudin, hot cracklins, and gator sausage under one roof. The shelves keep going from there. Jams, jellies, honey, and boiled peanuts share...

The Most Beloved Bar in New Orleans Is Still the Real Deal

From Mardi Gras to second lines, New Orleans knows how to let the good times roll. The French Quarter remains one of the city’s most historically rich and charming neighborhoods, but Bourbon Street — with its wall-to-wall T-shirt shops and neon-colored slushies — has a reputation for being a tourist mecca void of personality. But just off the infamous strip, no-frills dive bar Erin Rose has been slinging the city’s best frozen Irish Coffees for 25 years. It’s become a favorite of locals and pro bartenders alike.
