Hi All,

Got back from a week in chilly N.O. a couple of days ago. And spent a few warm nights at The Bum's Latitude. Great time there: nice crowd, knowledgeable and friendly bartenders, terrific decor and got to meet The Beachbum. Not a large space. Drinks were beautifully balanced. Over four nights I tried:

• Navy Grog
• Nui Nui
• Zombie
• Latitude 29
• Mai Tai
• Suffering Bastard
• Prof Remberg's Punch

Most interesting for me were; Mai Tai (more Orgeat forward than what I've been making), Suffering Bastard (haven't tried it before, not crazy about ginger beer, but this was good!), and Prof Remberg's Punch, which was the highlight of the week (the "Caribe" syrup will apparently remain a secret in the best tradition).

Needless to say, if you are in New Orleans, this is a must visit.

Steve.
