There is, as they say, more than one way to skin a cat.

According to AI, the origin of that saying is unknown, but it’s thought to refer to the various solutions to the tricky business of cleaning and preparing catfish, which is entirely appropriate for this Out to Lunch conversation about various ways of enjoying a long life or a short stay in New Orleans by taking the road less traveled.

Neal Bodenheimer from CURE on Freret Street and Deborah Dunn from New Orleans KOA Holiday urban campground in River Ridge join Peter Ricchiuti for lunch at The Columns Hotel.
