FUSION FOOD. The chef at LUVI mixes Japanese flavors with Chinese street fare to result in an unforgettable and personable dining experience. With a combination of hot fusion tapa style dishes and a creative raw bar, LUVI is sure to satisfy. Created within the last year this restaurant might not yet be on any tourist list, but we highly recommend giving it a try.

Atchafalaya is a contemporary Uptown restaurant with a high-ceilinged space lined with local art. Located on the corner of a neighborhood street, it is surrounded by other beautiful New Orleans homes. Which once was a shotgun home and an old convenient store, has now made its way to being voted one of the best brunch spots in America. With a make your own bloody mary bar, live jazz brunch on the weekends and a twist on traditional southern-french cuisine, this is much more than just a place to eat. Deciding between the popular brunch and outstanding candlelit dinner, may be difficult, but do yourself a favor and at least attend one, if not both of these memorable experiences.
