Back in April I made it back to New Orleans, one of my favorite cities. Having lunch at Mother’s, (and breakfast, and dinner) was high on my priority list. My favorite item on the menu is the Shrimp Po’ boy. It is one monstrous and beautifully crafted sandwich. While enjoying my Po’ Boy, tragedy struck as one of my fried shrimp fell out of my sandwich and onto the floor. To make up for my loss, I went back two other times.
Mothers is located at the corner of Poydras and Tchoupitoulas street, a few blocks from the French Quarter. One of the ways that I find these food hotspots or must visit restaurants while traveling, I find restaurants that are featured on Man Vs. Food. So far this technique hasn’t failed me and it’s greatly recommended. If you find yourself in NOLA and make your way to Mother’s, be sure to go an hour or two after lunch to avoid the crazy lunch rush.
