Even before we set off to Nola, Herb was helpful in my work-related shipping needs and guidance about some key spots to eat and explore. This wasn't my first trip down, but my travel-mate had never been to New Orleans before. After a harrowing four-times-shifted departure of my flight, Herb donated a bottle of red wine to accompany an incredible local take-out of po-boys and gumbo. At each moment we could either reach him in person or with a quick text, and he was an exceptionally hospitable host and guide. His little pup is also just as affable a guy.
