He slides, he shoots, he scores?*

Oyster sliders? When the Cod saw RR mention them last night, he thought maybe the bots had taken over ol' Ruth once and for all. But then William Tigertt chimed in. So WTF is an oyster slider, for those of us not making the late night scene at the Dutch. Research indicates that it's fried oyster, which makes more sense. 

So, the next question -- is an oyster slider just an ittybitty oyster poboy? Internet research is inconclusive. Given that you could hack four or five out of an oyster poboy from Domilise's** how long would it be until, at $4/slider you'd saved enough money just to fly to New Orleans? 

*Remember Basketball? Costas was kind of awesome. 

**Can someone with the knowledge lay out the whole once and future Parasol's thing? Folks on their way to the jazz festival there need to know.

What's you want to know about Parasol's? Tracey's is Parasol's in exile and (dare I said it) the original Parasol's is better than before.

The roast beef at Parasol's now comes on a toasted bun (don't remember that before) with garlic mayo. The firecracker shrimp is fried shrimp tossed in, I think, a Crystal's sauce. Both not to be missed. You can skip, though, the Irish sundae: scoop of potato salad covered in gravy.

If you need more, email or DM. Or just shout real loud. The weather in NOLA is lovely today, so I've got all the windows open.

Ok, check out this allegedly Dutch restaurant. No sign of "oyster slides," but on their "supper" menu (how cute!) they list "little oyster sandwiches."

No doubt "little oyster sandwiches" is more accurate than what Ruth said, but with a name like that they'll never be famous. Just shows what a gifted editor can do with even the least promising material.

Talk about needing an editor...this is what I meant to post:

And Jesus, did I say "toasted bun" in that first comment? What the fuck. Obviously I meant toast po-boy loaf. My only excuse is that all this slider talk had me fixated on burgers.

Ok, I'm going to step away from the comment form now.

The bake beef at Parasol's now arrives on a toasted bun (don't recall that before) with garlic mayo. The firecracker shrimp is deep-fried shrimp tossed in, I believe, a Crystal's sauce. Both not to be missed. You can skip, though, the Irish sundae: scoop of potato salad enclosed in gravy.

why to skip Irish sundae: scoop of potato salad enclosed in gravy?

If this is the new normal in Detroit, Schwartz is fine with that."We have some good players," Schwartz said. "We don't need to just sneak out onto the field and then sneak away. They're good players. We can embrace that. ...
