Kingfish
Kingfish underwent another chef change in 2016. but the Cajun flavors that have always characterized the eating here continue to dominate the menu. This is its second involvement with the Reveillon. It's in the most active part of the French Quarter for Christmas In New Orleans activities, which include many activities from cultural and historic presentation to the like of caroling. All of that is very casual and busy, with an emphasis on cocktails no matter what else you find in the narrow streets of the Vieux Carre. A lot of the waiters here have fascinating stories to tell.Four courses, $45

FULL REVIEW [caption id="attachment_40349" align="alignnone" width="480"] Figgy pudding @ Kingfish.[/caption] All the Reveillon menus can be perused here. We'll feature one every day throughout the Reveillon season, which runs in most of the Reveillon restaurants until December 31.The snowflake ratings are for the Reveillon menu, not the restaurant in general. Dishes marked with an asterisk are my recommendations. [divider type=""]
