The Best Restaurants in New Orleans’s Treme Neighborhood | Eater New Orleans
"The loss of Miss Leona ‘Chine’ Grandison to the coronavirus was a devastating blow to the many neighborhood friends who frequented her bar, the Candlelight Lounge. Treme born and bred, Miss Leona was the glue that held the corner together. The bar continues, always with her in mind, a hole in the wall brought into the limelight by the HBO show Treme. This is the place for strong cash-only drinks and local brass bands, a cultural gumbo that thrums with welcoming energy. Sometimes there’s homemade gumbo at the bar, other times barbecue outside, but this place isn’t about food." - Beth D’Addono
