It's been years since my visit to Bon Ton. In 2004 I was in New Orleans for a business trip. I luckily went to Bon Ton early in the trip and had time to go a second time.
The turtle soup, etouffee, and bread pudding with whiskey sauce invade my dreams. I will admit i'm not from New Orleans, rarely get to eat etouffee, never had turtle soup but i lived on bread pudding. I haven't been able to get that meal out of my head all these years. How many meal can you remember eating 7 years later?
I did get to use per diem to pay for my decadence but i believe it would be worth it again and again and again...
