As New Orleanians continue to follow the statewide stay-at-home order, this year’s Easter may not involve a leisurely restaurant brunch or the whole neighborhood gathered ‘round the buffet table, but there are still plenty of options for a well-cooked meal. Below are local restaurants serving up special Easter menus for curbside pickup or delivery this Sunday.
