Welcome to the Napoleon House in New Orleans. No matter how far I wander or travel, this will always be my favorite bar. We've shared history together since 1976, when I moved to New Orleans to go to the Tulane School of Social Work for graduate school. We share unique culture within its walls, that's only clear to those of us who have been regulars our adult New Orleans lives. Tourists may come and tourists may go. Although I don't fit in the tourist category or the regular category anymore;it's still incredible to walk in the door and have Sal seat me at my table, say hello to all the familiar wait staff, and then have my favorite waiter-LaRon-burst into a huge smile, with hugs and kisses for me before he brings my drink. Tomorrow, a little inside tour and stories.
