Over the past few months, New Orleans has welcomed a number of new openings, upping the city’s entertainment ante and adding to visitors’ must-do lists. Here, we highlight a few of the biggest and gaze into our 2020 crystal ball for a look at what’s to come.
LOUIS ARMSTRONG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Chances are you’ve already seen New Orleans’ newest attraction. Visitors traveling by plane now arrive at/ disembark from the airport’s new, 35-gate terminal, which opened in early November. The $1.3-billion facility is almost as much of a destination as the city itself, counting more than 40 restaurants and retailers among its three concourses. Beloved area eateries (Leah’s Kitchen, MoPho) are on the menu, along with nationally recognized brands, while popular shops such as Dirty Coast and NOLA Couture add to the local flavor. At the end of Concourse B, near Emeril’s Table, you’ll spot our own WhereTraveler store, where you can bag cool Crescent City collectibles before boarding.

SAZERAC HOUSE
Raise a toast to 2020 and “the official cocktail of New Orleans” at the recently opened Sazerac House museum, located just feet from where the original stood during the 1800s. In addition to a two-story still and complimentary cocktails, the free space features a variety of interactive exhibits that trace the city’s tippling timeline. Start on the third floor with an overview of New Orleans cocktail culture and work your way down.

The Best Part Of The Intermittent Fasting Diet Fad? Breaking It.
It’s hard to imagine not eating in New Orleans. That said, the nationwide diet craze, intermittent fasting (IF), means no food for an extended period of time (12-20 or more hours). Sounds outlandish, but IF (along with low carb, plant-based, vegan and gluten-free) is a thing. True story: A certain food writer (me) has been doing IF for months, and is always hunting restaurants with cool menus, late lunch hours and great food to end the fast.
Words To Eat By
Ok, full disclosure: The first book listed below is my new cookbook. Yes, it’s cheeky of me to list it here and to write about myself, but I’m really proud of this book. I’m also extremely happy to give press to three friends—and now, fellow authors—who also have recently released cookbooks. I highly encourage any food/cooking collector to add these to their shelf.
