Additionally, on Fridays, diners may enjoy $2 vodka martinis. Rib Room, Omni Royal Orleans Hotel, 621 St. Louis St., New Orleans, LA 70130, 504-529-7045.

Among the great holiday traditions in New Orleans, Reveillon is at the top of the local list. Reveillon, loosely translated to mean "awakening," is the basis for special holiday dinner menus at more than three dozen of the city's finest restaurants. The tradition holds that New Orleanians go to dinner after midnight mass on Christmas Eve. Although these dinners historically happened in private homes, for the past several decades local restaurants have been hosting the late-night soirées. This year those restaurants include familiar names such as Arnaud's, Commander's Palace, Brennan's and Broussard's, but also newer entrants to the local restaurant scene, including Restaurant R'evolution, Criollo (newly opened in the Hotel Monteleone), Ste. Marie and Borgne. For a full listing of participating restuarants, including reveillon menus, visit www.fqfi.com.
