Review on Mike's on the Avenue
Restaurateur Vicky Bayley and Chef/Artist Mike Fennelly, the creators of the highly acclaimed Mike's on the Avenue, have returned to the site of their original restaurant in the Central Business District at 628 St. Charles Avenue. Mike's on the Avenue, on the ground floor of the Lafayette Hotel at Lafayette Square, is similar to the original version of Mike's in both food and atmosphere, but with many additional menu options and a new interior that once again reflects Fennelly's talents as an artist and designer.
The chef's culinary approach is decidedly contemporary and draws from ingredients that have inspired him during his extensive travels over the years. Many of his dishes contrast Asian and Louisiana ingredients and techniques, bringing a bold-distinctive sensibility to his cooking. Much of Fennelly's food also reflects his fascination with New Orleans cuisine and the indigenous ingredients of South Louisiana.
