There is a lot of meat on the menu at Hickory's so it's nice to see a few very good vegetarian dishes. Above, cajun vegetable fajitas: Peppers & onions, warm floured tortillas, guacamole,
tomato salsa, sour cream & Cheddar cheese.
Three bean chilli (right)with Texas garlic toast is a great choice for vegetarians. The garlic toast is delicious. Sour cream and grated cheese accompany the chilli.
The tall drink is Hickory's Smokehouse Hurricane cocktail. Ingredients: Bacardi Oakheart & Bacardi Negra rums, passion fruit, pineapple, orange juice.
The drink on the right is the Mississippi Mule composed of Southern Comfort Cherry, fresh lime, pressed blueberries topped with ginger beer. It's a terrific drink on a cold wet evening. The ginger beer makes it really warming.
Front is cherry soda.
The soda drinks are served in jam jar glasses.
Ice Cream Superbowl Sundae - to share
The Sundae is brought to the table with a sparkler on top. Two of us shared it but it would have been enough for three or four people, making it a very economical dessert. Kids would like it: There's vanilla ice cream, plenty of cream, pieces of biscuit, chocolate sauce, marshmallows. Personally I prefer the more sophisticated ice cream Sundaes served at Fortes elsewhere in the locality.

Toast your own marshmallows at the table and dip them in chocolate sauce. A fun dessert which is easily large enough to share.

French Quarter Moonshine:
Ingredients: Buffalo Trace bourbon, fresh raspberries, lemon juice and pineapple. A pleasant drink but not as nice as the Daisy Duke or Mississippi Mule cocktails on offer.
