Locals, recommend me some food!

I'm deeply excited about going to New Orleans for the first time, and while there's no shortage of awesome NOLA eateries listed on the internet, I wonder if those mefites familiar with the city have any tasty treats they feel they should recommend. My Yankee blood is cold and bitter, but my tastes are catholic; I will literally eat anything that is edible. What should I cram down my gullet?
