Here is an update to the area as of Today.
I just returned from another great weekend in NOLA. K-Paul's is open for dinner only at the moment and has a band playing there both inside and outside.
Commandos Palace reopened last week and is pretty much booked up.
Emierils Delmonico Steak house is re opening at the end of the month.
Mothers is open now 7 days a week. I found that there Jambalaya is better than K-Paul's, Emerils, Nola and Café Masepere. It is by far the best I have ever tasted.
Café Du Monde is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
The general grocery store where you get the best Muffallata in town is closed Sundays and Mondays.
Johny Po Boys the food is still great but there delivery was slow and very poor service to boot. We received our half spilled coffee that was cold about over an hour after we ordered. When the delivery person saw the coffee that was in the cups he did apologize and he did not charge us for it.
Bourbon street is still Bourbon street. It is still crowded on the weekends but not as crowded as I have seen it in the past. It did seem better but I think the drinks have gone up in price. On a Sunday night it was not crowded at all.
Katrina hit away from the French Quarter. There was not much that you could see that was damaged in the Quarter from the storm. You did see less people there now from the past and a few places have closed down because there was not enough $ to stay open. Many places have reduced the hours.

I still like their red beans and rice the best of any I've ever tried, though apparently, according to Fern, I tried the wrong location of the Creole Connection, which she says has better red beans & rice. At the location I tried, it was horrible. But I suspect I'll be trying it again at a different location, next time I'm back.
French Quarter Fest in New Orleans is my favourite festival
