Antoine's - New Orleans, LA

To enjoy a Christmas season dinner at Antoine's was a dream come true for me.  Antoine's opened in 1840 and you can feel the history the second you walk through the doors.  Our dinner was a little over 3 hours and the different courses were never hurried or rushed.  Our waiter made suggestions and was patient with our questions.  It was a perfect meal.  I didn't take pictures of all of our dishes because I was too busy enjoying myself. 

If you EVER have a chance to dine at Antoine's, don't miss it!  AND if you scroll all the way down to the end of this post......You'll see Lolly herself!
