Saffron Nola
4128 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70115, USA
Saffron Nola, is the culmination of the Vilkhu family’s lifetime of passion for culture and food. Their James Beard nomination for Best New Restaurant in 2018 was hard earned after gracing the New Orleans community with a catering business for 26-years and a pop up restaurant for 6-years. The Vilkhu’s mission is to communicate the evolution of Indian Cuisine by making it accessible to guests on a modern stage . Like their dining table at home, the menu is designed for sharing and incorporates things they love from both India and New Orleans. While immigrating to the US, the Vilkhu family was exposed to the bounties of Louisiana, and more importantly, how food underscores the rich culture and community that makes New Orleans so special.

Hotel Peter & Paul
2317 Burgundy St, New Orleans, LA 70117, USA
Hotel Peter and Paul is the result of a four-year restoration of the former Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic church and school.

Each building has its own inspiration and narrative, with the resulting restoration ensuring that no two guest rooms are exactly alike.
