"Although its sweet little spot in the French Quarter is permanently and heartbreakingly closed, the original and huge 9 Roses location in Gretna is still serving the Westbank. The vast menu includes traditional Vietnamese specialties, along with Chinese dishes. Order any of the noodle plates and get the pan fried pork dumplings, best enjoyed with a drizzle of hot chili oil." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
