Parasol's Bar

Description

Dingy, dicey and a little bit dirty: This Irish Channel barroom is the classic neighborhood dive. During its infamous St. Patrick's Day celebrations, this bar floats in a flood tide of emerald beer as the starting point of New Orleans' boozy St. Paddy's parade--Mardi Gras with a coat of green Krylon. Its renowned roast beef po'boys aer greasy and garlicky; the rest of the bar food menu provides welcome ballast during televised Saints games.
