After dinner, everyone headed their separate ways. I walked up Canal Street toward Bourbon, thinking I would run back into the TBC Brass Band on the corner, but the Lucky Dog hotdog vendor said they had been there earlier and left. I soon heard the sounds of another brass band coming from the downtown side of Canal, but it proved to be a band coming outside from a wedding reception, so I walked down Bourbon all the way into the Marigny, but there was little going on there either.

Saturday, September 24, 2011 was the biggest and busiest day of the Cutting Edge NOLA Music Business Conference. Not only were many of the music panels on that day, but the NOLA Downtown Music & Arts Festival continued from 10 AM until late in the afternoon at Lafayette Square behind the Whitney Hotel. After speaking on the distribution panel, Rico Brooks and I joined the manager of the Brass-A-Holics for dinner at Drago’s Seafood next to Harrah’s Casino at the foot of Canal Street. Drago’s had the best chargrilled oysters I’ve ever eaten.

The Steak Knife is a historic New Orleans restaurant that few tourists ever see, since it is in an obscure neighborhood called Lakeview, which, as its name suggests is out close to Lake Pontchartrain. The Steak Knife is neither “New American” nor trendy, just consistently good basic steak and potatoes, with some inviting seafood dishes as well. It’s definitely worth a detour from the Quarter.
