Dining room at Emeril's, New Orleans, LAWhile sightings of the "Bam!" man himself are rare, chef de cuisine David Slater keeps rolling out the classics from Lagasse's playbook. Huge barbecue shrimp come enrobed in a robustly seasoned brown sauce; redfish come coated with a crumble of andouille sausage; and the king of desserts à la Emeril is the mightiest coconut cream pie imaginable. Slater's six-course tasting menus are dazzling, too. Occasionally, they might feature a Creole mustard-crusted rack of Colorado lamb. The wine list, under the expert guidance of sommelier Ray Gumpert, is as thick as a Russian novel and well composed, with (surprise!) a fair number of bottles priced below $35. Well-organized service teams keep things humming at the tables. The food bar, once located in a partly visible corner space, has been widened, and affords a panoramic view of the kitchen. Framed like a stage's proscenium arch, its border of back-lit glass cases hold colorful seeds, grains and spices.
