Mac’s home is a tastefully decorated, traditional New Orleans home (a shotgun) in a charming and safe neighborhood near Audubon Park and zoo. Mac was a very responsive and helpful host, even mailing to me the necklace I left behind. As Mac often lives there, his kitchen is a working one. My only suggestion for him would be to reserve space in the refrigerator and cupboards for the guests, which are fresher and sorted between guests. I felt a little awkward rummaging in his personal utensils and space in the kitchen. Other than that recommendation, everything was splendid.
