I’m from New Orleans and I grew up as a young kid in the St Thomas projects and we moved to a house at 933 Sixth Street right off of Magazine Street. After Hurricane Betsy smacked the city around and our house was torn up pretty bad. We moved out to Gentilly a few blocks from Lake Ponchartrain. Nice neighborhood. I joined the Marine Corps in 1970 and serving a 30 year career didn’t leave much time to go back home. I’m retired in San Diego now and I was heartbroken at the horrible damage Katrina did. I sure love all of the food.
