"RESTAURANT ORLEANS - 718 ORLEANS STREET.
Directly opposite the old Salle d'Orleans is a yellow two-story building erected in 1809 by Antoine Angue. During the heyday of the Theatre d'Orleans and when the best folks of town thronged the Orleans Ball Room, this place gained its fame from the quality of meals served by Creole chefs. It was called the Restaurant d'Orleans and for many years was in charge of Camille Adrien Dupuy who, in 1838, sold his lease to Gabriel Julien who also catered to the discriminating palates of the best people of the city for many years thereafter."
"The Orleans Restaurant, 718 Orleans Street. Just across the street from the Orleans Ballroom is an old yellow two-story structure, erected in 1809 by Antoine Angue. Here a century ago was housed the Restaurant d'Orleans, so famous during this period for its delectable Creole meals."
