Shiny new foodcourt full of delicious food and drink options. Good Bird makes fantastic chicken sandwiches. I once saw Mario Batali eating a sandwich there. Elysian Oysters has happy hour oysters after 8pm and makes great crab cakes. T@ Street Food is my go to place for Bahn Mi, Bittersweet Confections has ice cream by the scoop, and St. Roch Forage is a great place to pick up local veggies. Etc etc etc...

There pizza is delicious! The restaurant started as an illegal popup way back in the day, because New Orleans had no good pizza to speak of. Since then it is a fully legal fully functioning hot spot, making the hottest pies in town. They also have delicious pastas and salads, all made with fresh local ingredients.

Come for the jello shots stay for the karaoke. Kajun's is where all of the different personalities of New Orleans come together to sing karaoke. Expect long waits to sing, but it will give you more time to consume that liquid courage that you may need to belt out Whitney.
