Rock-N-Sake, New Orleans LA

My sisters wanted some really good sushi while we were in New Orleans.  Sushi in New Orleans?  Really?  Yes, really.

So, based on a recommendation, we found a place called Rock-N-Sake and it turned out to be less than a block from our hotel in the Warehouse District of downtown New Orlean.  We tried to call the order in, but they didn't answer their phone.  Strike One.  We walked to the restaurant with our order and the bartender who took our order was a snotty bitch.  Strike Two.

We had been told that this place was worth it so we placed our order and went outside to wait.  It was a beautiful evening and I always enjoy the company of my sisters so we didn't mind waiting too much.

We finally got our order and went back to the hotel where four hungry teenagers were eagerly awaiting their dinner.  It was late again.

Well, it was worth it.  I had the shrimp wontons.  They were shrimp and cream cheese stuff pouches served crispy and with a shrimp and garlic sauce.  They were the crispiest wontons I'd ever eaten.  The shrimp and cream cheese stuffing was heavenly and there were fresh, sweet shrimp in the shrimp and garlic sauce.  SO GOOD!!   The others ordered sushi and everyone raved about it.  We also got two orders of edamame which I usually love, but these were undersalted so they were just okay.

Overall, it was very, very delicious, chic Japanese food and I highly recommend it.
