Best Restaurant Meal of 2009
We still have a month of a pretty good meals left. After Fla kills Alabama this afternoon, JAG and I are going to Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse. But it is never too early to reflect on your favorite meals of 2009. All of mine, save for one, were eaten with JAG.
1) Del Porto
2) Martinique for JAG's Bday
3) Ciro's Cote Sud-JAG and I discover a hidden gem together
4) Chef's Table at Commander's
5) Galatoire's Lunch for my bday. (the only sans JAG meal on the list.)
6) Dinner at Slightly North of Broad in Charleston
7) Lunch at Lola in Covington.
8) Every meal at A Mano.
9) Beer and Pretzels at Wynkoop Brewery in Denver (Those pretzels were really friggin' good.)
10) Bastille Day Dinner at Iris
A few other note worthy meals, the first time I went to La Boca with JAG and pretty much every other time as well. I had a pretty good lunch at Mr. B's with a friend of mine. I had a great meal at Boucherie in April. And while the food was just ok, the dinner we had Muriel's after a huge Directed Verdict of Not Guilty at Tulane and Broad.
Some how I managed to compose a best of NOLA dinnng list without mentioning a Besh owned restaurant.

Bam, waiting on your response to Florida whipping
Alabama's you know what! With a name like Bam, I am hoping you are a Roll Tider, but your comment makes me wonder.
ROLL TIDE!!!

Bam might not like this but I think my best meal of 2009 was a Renegade Eat Club at a friend's house in May. It was absolutely amazing. Bam wasn't there though we did meet up after, so maybe that counts.
Next would be Del Porto, that was just a perfect evening.
