Hopdoddy Celebrates Back-to-School in Austin

Summer break has officially ended but Hopdoddy has a few September specials to help you ease the pain as reality sets in and the kiddos return to school.

 

Lil’ Brat Burger ($10)

Just in time for the start of Oktoberfest on Sept. 17, the Lil’ Brat Burger starts off with beer braised Beeler’s Brats set atop a fresh ground beef patty. Sandwiched between the two meats are in house roasted red peppers and caramelized onions, with melty provolone cheese holding everything together. To (literally) top everything off, Hopdoddy’s special poppy seed bun made just for this feature is smothered with sweet grain mustard.

After School Special Shake ($6)

This sweet shake is sure to bring back a feeling of nostalgia. The After School Special is made with all natural peanut butter and grape jelly, mixed together with vanilla ice cream and topped with whip cream and toasted croutons.

 

Hot for Teacher Sip ($7)

This refreshing cocktail gets an A+ with its brilliant combination of Tito’s Vodka, fresh squeezed Granny Smith apple juice, honeydew melon juice, habanero simple syrup and lemon lime soda, all served in a cold mason jar with a chile salt rim.

Caesars Entertainment Unveils Stunning Transformation with the Grand Opening of Caesars New Orleans

New Orleans, LA - On October 22, 2024, I recently had an opportunity to attend the grand opening of Caesars New Orleans, marking the completion of a stunning $435 million transformation of the former Harrah’s New Orleans. It was an evening to remember, filled with excitement, luxury, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. The festivities began on Canal Street with an exhilarating ceremony led by Caesars Entertainment CEO Tom Reeg, President & COO Anthony Carano, and Caesars New Orleans General Manager Samir Mowad. The atmosphere was electric as they joined Caesar himself and an iconic New Orleans second-line band in a lively procession into the casino. It felt like the entire city had come out to celebrate, with Caesars New Orleans team members and Mayor LaToya Cantrell also joining the event to commemorate this historic occasion. Anthony Carano’s pride in introducing Caesars to New Orleans was palpable. “From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it,” he said. The ceremony was a spectacle, kicking off with an iconic Mardi Gras float featuring Caesar and his court, and a dazzling firework show that lit up the New Orleans sky. The second-line band then led us revelers into the resort’s elegant center bar, Octavia, where we indulged in a “Taste of Caesars New Orleans.” Each bite from the six on-property restaurants was a delightful journey, capturing the essence of New Orleans’ rich culinary scene. Throughout the night, elemental entertainers, including the Saints Cheer Krewe, Mardi Gras Indians, Zulu Tramps, and showgirls, created an authentic and unforgettable Big Easy experience. Everywhere I turned, there was something new to marvel at, each performance more mesmerizing than the last. Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, highlighted the significance of the transformation, stating, “This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.” The hotel itself is impressive,…
