Drinks with Anna

by Leah Draffen

EVERY YEAR IN THE HEAT of summer, New Orleanians happily welcome COOLinary. Restaurants across New Orleans participate in the extravaganza by sharing prix-fixe dinner menus with incredible prices. In the warehouse district, Briquette is thrilled to offer its COOLinary three-course dinner menu for only $43 Wednesdays through Saturdays from now until September 5.

Begin your Briquette COOLinary experience with a choice of Creole Gumbo; a Briquette Salad of baby market greens, eggplant caviar, fresh goat cheese, petite tomatoes and dressing; or Carmelized Sea Scallops with charred poblano. Second course offers the choice of Chicken Marsala served with Trotelle Alfredo; Pan Seared Redfish Almandine with Tabasco beurre blanc, heirloom potatoes, and haricot vert; or Pasta Briquette, a blend of shrimp, mushrooms, tomatoes, and arugula tossed with pasta in a mushroom cream sauce. A seasonal fresh fruit Romanoff finishes the meal.

As a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence 2021 recipient, sipping a glass of wine with your COOLinary meal is a must. Briquette has an extensive wine selection housed in the contemporary, yet comfortable atmosphere. Rest assured that you will enjoy the finest in dining and drinks as co-owners Anna and AJ Tusa are members of the Confrérie de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, the world’s oldest, largest and most prestigious food and wine society.

Take advantage of happy hour Thursday to Saturday from 5-9pm. Find Briquette’s full menu at briquette-nola.com. Located at 701 S Peters Street. 504-302-7496.
