Jockomo feena nay...(Dr. John)

"Jokomo feena nay" is a line from a Dr. John song. If you don't know who Dr. John is, you should stop reading right now, and google him, listen to a few tunes, and come back. Seriously. Dr. John is a pretty big deal in New Orleans- and lots of other parts too actually. Tonight, we went to Jacques-Imos (pronounced Jokomos) and I drank a Fenna Nay cocktail! We had fried green tomatoes, shrimp and alligator sausage cheesecake, stuffed soft-shell crab tower, creole crème brulee, and caramel coconut bread pudding. Yep, that's how we do it here in New Orleans!

The best seat at Jacques-Imos is in the bed of an old painted pick up truck that sits out front on the curb. We were lucky enough to score that table, on a Friday night, with no wait at all! How fun :)
