THE Mobile Guide to the French Quarter

We help folks find their way around the French Quarter.

As We Saw It

fqf — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 10:37:54 +0000

Like all of us, from time to time we have the opportunity to visit a venue, enjoy a meal, or witness a “happening” in the Quarter and will share it with you in this spot. As we begin this venture of reporting on our experiences, dining, visiting, viewing, strolling, imbibing, and just being in the French Quarter, we want to make it clear that we are just regular people. We’re not professional wine and cuisine connoisseurs. We are not professional reviewers of performances, we’re just regular people who love the French Quarter and have a few folks that seem to like what we have to present on French Quarter Finder and our Facebook. That said…let us tell you about a recent experience: click or tap the map.
