Summary

In this episode Mark takes you on a tour of the historic Carrollton neighborhood.

If you were ever thinking about a move to New Orleans, a morning or two on the streets of Carrollton would about do it. Located just 5 miles from the French Quarter, Carrollton has a small town feel with plenty of charm, and is only a streetcar ride away.

We explore the food, the architecture, history and the music. Ever heard of the Black Pearl? Want the inside scoop on Jacques-Imo’s restaurant or the best place to take in a Rebirth Brass Band performance? You’ve come to the right place!
