On Friday morning my GF and I decided to head to NO to attend the Zurich on Sat. Secured a room at LaPavillion at a decent rate and off we went. No reservations available at any great places so that left us with ole reliable...get to bar at GW Fins at 5 pm . We ate there twice in last 3 months trying to get there to enjoy Dry Aged Tuna....I knew with Jazz Fest and the Zurich they would have it available but not on menu. We got there at 5:10 1 other person at the bar and few early diners...ordered some bubbles and had our Kosta Brown 2019 Gap's Crown Pinot opened and decanted. Bar tender asked if we where celebrating a special ocassion...of course it was our 4th Anniversary ...I asked him if they were featuring Dry Aged Tuna this weekend ,,,,he went to kitchen and he said that since it was our anniversary chef would cut us a nice piece. Had 2 appetizers and the entree (big enough to share) . Dam that tuna was so good....like eating a fine steak..a really good steak...Can't wait to have it again....

They serve very good food. Everyone should try it. Seafood is very much a specialty.

4th anniversary of a girlfriend? Put a ring on it, or if still not sure after 4 years, move on.

Damn.

Who is the dried tuna in this story?

You boys will learn that if it Flies, Sucks or Floats its better to rent it....at 62 and 2 Ex's they aren't more rings.... last one has one from Aucoin Hart that was 70 plus thousand...Also don't pass on GW Fins just cuz someone in party doesn't like fish...they have great steaks..in fact I entertained a client last year who I didn't know didn't eat fish, so the steak was his only option and he demand that we go back there last month when I needed to visit with him about some contracts. Fins is maybe the most underrated restaurant in NOLA!

Tuna tacos and lobster dumplings are a must as apps. And if they have the surf and turf with the dry aged blue fin that is my go to.
