A damned shame (Score:1)
From different directions all around me, I could hear wildly different music, exotic (to my Ozarks ears) accents, and smell all sorts of delicious foods. It was magic.
And I had the best freshly-fried potato chip there too - yes, that's "chip" not "chips". The place used a Craftsman drill to drive most of a whole potato through a food processor blade, resulting in a wispy thin single curl that seemed to be a yard long! That went into the fryer, skin on the edge and all.
When it was done, it got a little salt and was plopped in front of me. Never has a potato tasted so good, or been eaten so fast!

It's a shame the people who have left New Orleans won't remember how to do those things in other cities.
BTW, they do the same thing with the potato at the Wurst Wagon at the First Saturday computer sale in Dallas each month. It's delicious, although I haven't had one in years, ever since I discovered I liked bratwurst.
