I haven't talked about The Simpsons, since I reviewed their MAC x Marge: The Simpsons Collection back in 2014. Well last Sunday (April 22nd), "they visited" New Orleans via FOX television. The episode is called, "Lisa Gets The Blues". You can view it HERE. The Simpson Family was flying to Gainesville, Florida and their flight was diverted to New Orleans, Louisiana. What's so funny is, I went to nursery school in Gainesville! My dad was from Florida. So I could relate. Below are some of the New Orleans restaurants & places they featured in the show. I made each restaurant clickable in this post. I thought it would make a great guide for anyone thinking about visiting New Orleans. New Orleans is known for great food and Homer literally tries almost everything. New Orleans can be very fun, but also realize there's been an uptick in crime (purse snatching, robbery and car jacking). I always like to keep things real. Carry little. Don't look like a tourist. Don't hang around. Go to your destination. Leave your destination. There's currently a lot of construction in the French Quarter area, so you might want to hold off visiting until next year. I think they did a fabulous job featuring all of these places and I love the illustrations. Have they ever showcased your city?
