The Blue Parrot

In the evening, sans camera, we ventured out to the Blue Parrot Bar & Grille in Little Italy on the West Side. We were curious about a New Orleans restaurant so far removed from the Mississippi and in Delaware, no less. It turned out to be great fun. The food was close to the real thing, the blues band--the Roger Girke Band out of Philadelphia--was entertaining, and where else could one experience two hurricanes on the same day: Hanna in the morning and the cocktail in the evening.
