Carrollton Market Does The Coolinary
The Coolinary for 2017 is underway through the end of August. Conceived by the the New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau, its goal is to encourage local Orleanians as well as frequent visitors to our city to dine in more often in the city's better restaurants. To that end, the restaurants offer three-course dinners of their best fare for prices between $35 and $39. That will also go on at lunchtime for some of the Coolinary restaurants, when a two-course lunch goes for about $20. This year's Coolinary is especially appealing, with over 100 restaurant taking part. The New Orleans Menu Daily will feature one of the best Coolinary menus every day in this space. Here's one now!
