Here is another "Hot Tip" to consider before coming to AALL in New Orleans--
The Historic New Orleans Collection in the French Quarter is a housed in a complex of several buildings of varying ages. The HNOC is a museum and research center for state and local history. Their exhibit "What's Cooking in New Orleans?" has been so popular it is being held over to run through November, so it will be possible for our members to see it. The exhibit examines culinary traditions of the Crescent City. The curators say: "The cuisine that defines New Orleans today has been nearly three centuries in the making. Consider What's Cooking in New Orleans? an appetizer, an introduction to the complex cultural, economic, and social factors that have shaped the Crescent City's culinary traditions. The materials gathered here--cookbooks, menus, photographs, and other memorabilia--span the mid-20th centuries, with an array of kitchen gadgets carrying the storyline right up to the present day."
The exhibit is at the HNOC's Williams Gallery at 533 Royal Street in the French Quarter. Entrance is free and the hours are: Tuesday-Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The telephone number is 504-523-4662 and their website is http://www.hnoc.org/
The manager of the Shop at the Collection which has history-related books and gifts is offering a 10% discount on almost all items to AALL members who show their convention name tag.
A limited number of What's Cooking in New Orleans? exhibition guides will be available at the AALL Hospitality Desk.
