My husband and I are going to New Orleans for a wedding at the end of October. We’re not big drinkers. Any recommendations on what to see/do?

Jam nola, very lovely colorful music museum

Antoine’s for lunch, it’s always the cost of the year! Also, Dragos at the Hilton has delicious charbroiled oysters. You can also do walking tours, there’s some free ones that are pretty good, you just tip what you feel is fair. Frenchman street for great Jazz, less debauchery than Bourbon Street. If you like middle eastern food, go to Saba in the Garden District, they have great hand made pita. In any case take the trolley through the Garden District to sightsee, starting down in the financial/warehouse district. You will get to see NOLA in a different light.

Audubon Park is great whether you want to be outdoors or go to the zoo there. There are plenty of great walking tours. If you drive a bit, you can see the swamp tours as well. And the Mardi Gras museum is a big one as well.

Morning Call for beignets and coffee ☕️. So freaking good and way less crowded than Café Du Monde.

I enjoyed the Garden District walking tour. They pointed out historical homes and highlighted some celebrity homes. We also had fun just riding the trolley and exploring.

I second this. There is one that adds on a cemetery that is particularly good. It’s been years so I lost the tour company name…can’t go wrong with anything in the garden district

So much to do! Bacchanal in the Bywater = dreamy outdoor chill jazz venue/wine store/restaurant, City Park/New Orleans Museum of Art/Botanical Gardens, shopping in the garden district…

Oktoberfest is usually all weekends in October at the German house down there. Good food.

Also have Voodoo music fest around that time.

Hello fishes. I received a call from Iberis technologies saying they are hiring for Lenovo. Recruiter said I will be on payroll of iberis until 2 performance reviews and then I will move under the payroll of Lenovo. But they are not ready to give that in written. Also she is saying Lenovo doesn't hire people directly nowadays. They have to go through other vendors payroll before they become permanent with Lenovo. Is it true?
