Congratulations to the folks at Maximo’s Italian Grill for 25 years of great food.

This month marks the year of Maximo’s 25th anniversary and you are invited to come help us celebrate!! Along with our Wednesday night 50% off bar special, we have some other fantastic offers planned for the evening…

Our executive Chef Thomas Woods has prepared a $25 (per person) Red and White Wine Dinner menu for the evening- it includes a glass of our most decadent Italian wine selections, which have been perfectly paired with an appetizer and an entree course.

The exceptional Italian wines we will be featuring are 2007 LaVite Lucente and 2008 Santa Cristina Antinori “Campogrande”

Buy a bottle of either featured wines and automatically get entered into our $25 Gift Certificate give-away.

Chef’s dinner menu will be posted on Maximo’s blog at www.MaximosGrill.com. Reservations are strongly recommended. Please call 504.586.8883 for further inquiries about this evening.

Mary Jane's Emporium makes seven.

Our little neighborhood tobacco shop, Mary Jane’s Emporium, is celebrating seven years in business this week. According to Lower Decatur Street lore the shop opened it’s doors at 1229 Decatur Street on September the 9th, 1999. In honor of the occasion they are having a Party Like It’s 1999 Sale, which means a 17% or more discount on many of the items in the shop, with the biggest exception being tobacco. “We’re already too damn cheap on smokes”, laughs the manager. Sale ends September 30th.

$2 Mimosas, Poinsettias, and Bloody Marys

The diabolical little caffine elves at Cafe Envie are at it again.  What better way to lure people to your place than cheap booze with breakfast.  Just in time in for the merriment surrounding Southern Decadence they’ve unveiled their latest special offering.

Breakfast is served 7am-2pm at 1241 Decatur Street (corner of Barracks).  They also have Gourmet coffee drinks, sandwiches, pasteries, desserts, and a full bar with some of the tastiest absinthe in the French Quarter.

Good only through August 30 – September 4.
