Where the Locals Go
Where The Locals Go Stone Pigman's Top New Orleans Picks Where The Locals Go 1 The lawyers of Stone Pigman Walther Wittmann L.L.C. welcome you to the great city of New Orleans. Known around the world for its food, nightlife, architecture and history, it can be difficult for visitors to decide where to go and what to do. This guide provides recommendations from seasoned locals who know the ins-and-outs of the finest things the city has to offer. "Antoine’s Restaurant is the quintessential classic New Orleans restaurant. The oldest continuously operated family owned restaurant in the country. From the potatoes soufflé to the Baked Alaska with café Diablo for dessert, you are assured a memorable meal." (713 St. Louis Street, New Orleans, LA 70130 (504) 581-4422) Carmelite Bertaut "My favorite 100+ year old, traditional French Creole New Orleans restaurant is Arnaud’s. It's a jacket required restaurant, but has a causal room called the Jazz Bistro, which has the same menu, is right on Bourbon Street, and has a jazz trio playing in the corner of the room." (813 Bienville Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70112 (504) 523-5433) Scott Whittaker "The food at Atchafalaya is delicious and the brunch is my favorite in the city. The true standout of the brunch is their build-your-own bloody mary bar. It has everything you could want, but you must try the bacon." (901 Louisiana Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70115 (504) 891-9626) Maurine Wall "Chef John Besh’s restaurant August never fails to deliver a memorable fine dining experience.

Tourism – a Conservation Tool for St. Louis Cemetery No. 1
Tourism – A Conservation Tool for St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 Introduction Some might say that the city of New Orleans, specifically the French Quarter or Vieux Carré, is, and always has been, the quintessential cultural tourism city. Whether in New Orleans for leisure or business, the modern day visitor experiences an “otherness” that has changed, but has not been lost through the centuries. Tourism can be managed with vision, poorly, or not at all, but it will always be a factor in New Orleans. This paper explores how tourism has defined the cemeteries of New Orleans throughout history and suggests that the growing tourism interest in the cemeteries now be harnessed to positively impact the future conservation needs of these cultural sites. Tourism and Cultural Tourism Defined There are many definitions and perceptions of “tourism.” One definition of tourism is the “voluntary, leisure-time travel that brings guests, who are strangers, into contact with hosts, who anticipate and cater to guests’ needs and desires.”1 Dean MacCannell defines tourist two ways. First as sightseers, mainly middle-class, who are at this moment deployed throughout the entire world in search of experience.” And secondly, as “one of the best models available for modern-man-in-general.”2 A simple definition by the World Tourism Organization is “tourist – any person who stays away from home overnight.”3 Cultural tourism is a smaller subset that often includes travel involving music, arts, history or ethnic exchange. Anthropological studies often focus on the negative consequences that local, or host, communities experience from tourism, and tourism has been long criticized by the preservation community.
