Tatlo
5-Course Palate-Bending Pleasures Tasting Event
Opened this past September, Tatlo is the French Quarter’s first Witch Bar + Kitchen. Hidden within the historic Old Absinthe House, Tatlo - which offers distinctive Southeast Asian flavors from the Philippines and Vietnam - was named to Eater’s “12 Best New in NOLA” List. Chef/Owner Cristina Quackenbush was born in the Philippines and raised on a farm in southern Indiana. Heading to the South to expand her culinary skills, she has held every position in a restaurant throughout her 25-year career. She opened the first Filipino restaurant in New Orleans and is noted for her pop-ups and Kamayan dinners. At Tatlo, she is serving thoroughly unique dishes like Peanut Butter Belly (sous vide short rib, peanut butter, bok choy, eggplant), Triquetra (pork ribs, sticky lemongrass BBQ, candied mango, mint), and Synergy (chicken adobo aranchini, purple sticky rice). Axios says, “[Tatlo] is bursting with flavor and creativity, and it achieves the magical feat of feeling genuine, not gimmicky, just steps from Bourbon Street.” Woo-hoo! We’re on our way. See you there!
