Special Summer Menus: Windsor Court

During the past four weeks, we've gone through all the special summer menus of restaurants participating in the COOLinary New Orleans promotion. Thirty-one restaurants have three-course dinners for $30.07 or less, or three-course lunches for $20.07. (Or both.) The entire list of COOLinary restaurants, with their special menus, can be viewed  here. I've also posted what I think are the best of these summer menus on this site. Click here for all of those.

Now we'll turn our attention to other summer menus not part of this promotion. If you know of a good one, let me know, because the restaurants don't always tell me everything they're doing (although I wish they would). Write me: news@nomenu.com.
