Whether you’re soaking up historic sites in the French Quarter or checking out the art scene in the Warehouse District you’re never far from fantastic food in “N’Awlins.” From its cultural blending of Cajun, Creole, Haitain, and French foods, New Orleans has emerged as a top food destination. While you’re down South make sure to try NOLA favorites such as crawfish etouffee, jambalaya, seafood gumbo, and red beans and rice. Overwhelmed by amazing options? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. We’re helping you make the most out of your visit by offering exclusive deals. Show your badge from the International Reading Association 59th Annual Conference at any of the restaurants below prior to ordering and take advantage of these special offers.

Although the French Quarter is the oldest neighborhood in NOLA these restaurants always feel like a new experience. Bourbon Street is hopping with live music and great eats so make sure you make the most of it by eating at the Hard Rock Café, located at 125 Bourbon Street and receive $5 off a $25 purchase when you show your IRA 2014 badge. If you’re fishing around for good seafood, you have to swing on by the award-winning Red Fish Grill, located at 115 Bourbon Street, for a complimentary glass of specially selected wine with the purchase of a dinner entrée.* You can also reel in a great deal at Poppy's Time Out and the Crazy Lobster in the Spanish Plaza near Port of New Orleans and enjoy a free fried pickle appetizer with the purchase of an entrée. If you believe that shrimp is the fruit of the sea then you have to go to Bubba Gump, located at 429 Decatur Street. Receive a complimentary appetizer with the purchase of two entrees when you show your IRA 2014 badge.

Falling in love with those French Quarter favorites is easy, but don’t spend all your time there. Check out the Warehouse District as well for some great deals! Make sure you head on over to the Sun Ray Grill at 1051 Annunciation Street and enjoy a free bottle of house wine with two entrees. Choosing what to eat might be difficult with unique selections such as Goat Cheese Fritters, Crawfish Bruschetta, and Hoke Poke.

The International Reading Association 59th Annual Conference will be held Friday, May 9 through Monday, May 12, 2014 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. Visit www.iraconference.org for conference details or to register. 

*Offer valid at dinner only. Not available with any other promotional offer. No cash value. Limit one offer per table. Expires May 13, 2014.
