Hungry for the Big Easy? Get a dose of it at Bourbon Blue, a stylish eatery that features DJs and live music in historic Manayunk. In this brick-walled old warehouse, with its soaring ceiling, beams and grill work, the menu runs the gamut from freshly shucked oysters and chicken quesadillas to spicy jambalaya, barbecued shrimp and etouffée. The burgundy-hued bar is a good spot for the traditional Hurricane cocktail and Cajun popcorn.
