City Park: Wonderland of Fun - Walking New Orleans - page 130

showcases streets and local icons such as Louis Armstrong and Mr. Bingle, a
storied Christmas character (a snowman with an ice-cream-cone hat) associ-
ated with the old Maison Blanche department store.
• Continue down Victory two blocks to Stadium Drive and turn left. Walk an-
other block back to Dreyfous and turn left. Take Dreyfous to Anseman, turn
right, and exit the park. Turn left and return to the starting point.
Though not part of the park, Ralph's On the Park, directly across the street
from the Anseman entrance, is yet another of the city's classy eateries. It's an
upscale restaurant, so if you're not quite dressed for it, do consider it another
time.
