The indoor fireworks, aka cafe brulot, to end at @arnaudsnola .

And to begin, a pre-dinner drink at @thefrench75bar , inside the restaurant but its own portal to the belle époque.

But it’s not all tradition here these days.

The restaurant is actively courting a younger clientele.

Aren’t we all, right?

But for the French Creole showboats, it’s vital.

They are unique to New Orleans, steeped in history and tradition. For that to continue, these places also must be relevant to successive generations looking for places to dine out, bring their celebrations and make their own traditions.

Hence Arnaud’s summer campaign.

Through August, they continue a 30% discount for “young professionals” on certain nights.

And daily happy hour at both bars (yes, there are are two…)

This week, starting July 28 through Sept 7, the French 75 gets a make over with @moetchandon , in a Euro beach resort theme (add lobster rolls).

And another wine-soaked Friday rose lunch is coming up August 22 with a DJ in the dining room and Jell-O shots to start and (probably) more cafe brulot.
