If you've never been to the French Quarter, do not just immediately head to Bourbon Street. Instead, Eater suggests approaching the Vieux Carre with an eye for the must-visit spots, from the oldest bars in America to hidden tiki oases to some very famous Bourbon Street spots.
This map — the restaurants, dishes, and culinary experiences that help define the French Quarter's identity — should offer a comprehensive starting point for any visitor. It includes the obvious and the over-publicized, but also hidden gems. It’s mostly about dishes and experiences, rather than the restaurant experience as a whole. Head here if you're looking for the French Quarter's essential restaurants.
