Commander’s Palace, New Orleans

by SP on October 6th, 2006

A hidden jewel in the heart of New Orleans’ Garden District, Commander’s Palace is truly one of the finest dining experiences in the world. Commander’s setting with sounds that soothe the soul and set the mood for an unparalleled culinary adventure.

As you sit spellbound by the atmosphere, you may hardly notice the attention to detail with which the Brennan name is synonymous. Commander’s interior is as timeless and treasured as its gardens and offers views of them from the comfort of its garden room and newly remodeled patio room.

And be sure to try their Turtle Soup. And don’t be surprised if you notice just a smidgen of sherry .;)

And don’t be surprised if you feel a ghostly presence over your shoulder. The 1891 Castle Inn and Lafayette Cemetery are located just around the corner and both are well known for their ghosts.

And it has just re-opened!
