Road Trips

Ultimate daytripper Ian McNulty journeys to St. Francisville this week for a visit to the Cat Island refuge, plantations, and a bit of dining at the Magnolia Cafe: "Expanded from a colorful cottage to include a pair of bars, a screened dining deck and gazebo and a stage for live music on Fridays, it's the picture of the eclectic casual eatery, serving hummus and hamburger steaks next to enchiladas and pizza."
