WELCOME TO OUR INTIMATE DINING EXPERIENCE ON FRENCHMEN STREET

WE CELEBRATE MOMENTS OF JOY!
At our last intimate dining experience, guests sat outside on the balcony on Frenchmen Street and enjoyed a cocktail from our liquor sponsors. Another guest from Oklahoma celebrated a birthday —complete with a beloved New Orleans tradition: pinning money on the birthday honoree! Our fast-paced, one-hour show captures the joy of community, creativity, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans’ crafting and creator culture. Through lively discussion and interactive fun, we transform strangers into friends in a warm, welcoming space. In just one evening, guests arrive as individuals and leave with new connections, shared laughter, and a deeper appreciation for the rich traditions of our city. Whether it’s a birthday, graduation, or just a reason to gather, our “living room of life” is the perfect place to celebrate togetherness, cultural pride, and the simple joy of fun—New Orleans style.
Join Pandora & Jack for our next scheduled event Saturday, August 23, 2025. Guest Arrive: 6PM-6:10PM Special Puppet Show Starts: 6:10PM-6:30PM Show Starts: 6:30PM-7:30PM
YOU'RE BAD EEFORTS RECYCLE SHOW


We Share Our Recycling Stories!
The Recycle Challenge taking small steps for big gains.
At the heart of our intimate dining experience is a vibrant storytelling and show-and-tell moment where we share how everyday items are recycled, repurposed, and upcycled into beautiful, functional, and artistic creations. From transformed textiles to reimagined packaging, we reveal the stories behind each piece—highlighting the creativity, care, and community behind sustainable living. It’s not just dinner—it’s a celebration of imagination, resourcefulness, and the power of giving new life to what others might throw away.

Our Living Room of Life embodies the vibrant, welcoming spirit that New Orleans is known for—where new meetings turn into meaningful connections. Designed as an intimate dining experience, it’s the perfect setting for birthday parties, graduations, or any reason to gather and celebrate. With room for only a handful of guests, each evening feels personal, joyful, and unforgettable.
Through delicious food, interactive performances, and spontaneous moments of laughter, we transform our cozy space into a stage for storytelling, cultural expression, and creative exchange. Every show brings more than entertainment—it’s an opportunity to learn about sustainability, local crafting traditions, and the rich creator culture that makes New Orleans so unique.
Here, we don’t just serve dinner. We serve community, creativity, and the celebration of possibility—one intimate gathering at a time.
