Last night, by the way, we went to Landry's in the French Quarter. It was perfect! We wanted to get something that was distinctively New Orleanian, but not fast food and not anything we had to dress up for or that would cost too much. We drove around a bit on Magazine St but didn't see anything that was quite what we wanted, and then we ended up in the Vieux Carré, where we saw something promising. I don't even remember what it was, because then we drove around to find parking and on our way there, we saw Landry's, which had good location, good prices ($teens, mostly), and good dress code (i.e. none). And, it turns out, good food. I had the stuffed shrimp enbrochette over jambalaya, which I couldn't finish, and everybody else seemed to be similarly pleased with their orders.
So, that worked out well.
