Our Picks for November
It's beginning to feel a lot like....
Oh, who are we kidding. It might be November in New Orleans, but there are days when it still feels like June. However, the start of November and the unofficial beginning of the holiday season ushers in some great events. Our picks for the month are below.
Boudin, Bourbon and Beer (Friday November 13, 2015). Tickets are still available to the hottest culinary festival of the year. BBB brings together chefs from around the country, including acclaimed chefs such as Emeril Lagassee, Mario Batalli, and Donald Link. The ticket price includes unlimited food and drinks, music, and goes to support some of Emeril's philanthropic organizations. For more information, see the website.
Die Fledermaus (Sunday November 15, 2015). Many people associate New Orleans with world class music, but most don't even know New Orleans is home to its own Opera company. The second opera of the season, Die Fledermaus revolves around a masked ball where intrigue and romance are in the air. Tickets are still available.
Beaujolais Nouveau Celebration (Thursday November 19, 2015).The 2015 Beaujolais Nouveau Celebration celebrates the much-anticipated harvest of the Beaujolais Nouveau, and gives guests the chance to taste this year's harvest along with other French wine and cocktails, cuisine from a variety of local restaurants, live music, an auction and more.
