The Italian Saint celebrated at Tony Angelo's

Bobby and I are lucky to be able to celebrate both our wedding anniversary and St. Joseph's Day together. There is one place where we like to do both: Tony Angelo's Restaurant on Fleur des Lis and Harrison Ave.

This new Orleans' landmark has been opened since 1972, except for the post Katrina rebuilding. We love to have our favorite waiter, Ronnie, because he serenades us with old Italian songs. Last night we were favored with two traditional songs.

I love the eggplant parmigiana and the minestrone soup, both were delicious as usual. Bobby had the special baby drum with crabmeat topping. We missed the neighbor who drives his golf cart right up to the front walkway. When we were here a month ago, we were told that," he must have be drunk, he usually parks on the street; not the side walk!"

We also missed Tony, the owner, who often stands guard over the main dining room. One evening, we were serenaded by three opera singers who happened to be there honoring a relative. That was the best version of " Happy Birthday" that we have ever heard!

One never knows what delights may be stumbled upon when dining at an old traditional New Orleans Restaurant. Come and join us for a memorable evening.
