Today’s show is about exploring the Bywater, a neighborhood downriver from the French Quarter.

Our guide is Chef Chris St. John, the chef and co-owner at Capulet, located in the heart of the Bywater. Join Chris and I as we discuss Capulet, the Bywater neighborhood, and answer a few listener questions along the way.
