    This review is for the restaurant at the front of the Healing Center, which is known as "Fatouche"…read more My wife brought me there when we first moved into the area. She swore it was excellent middle eastern food, and she was absolutely right. The food is fresh, fast, and very tasty. The prices are reasonable. The only (minor) drawback is that the service is just a tad sluggish and depending on the complexity of activity in the kitchen (which is half-open to the restaurant), you may have to listen to arguments between the kitchen staff while waiting for your food. Otherwise, everything about this place is great. The space is bright, tastefully decorated, and inviting. There is plenty of seating. It is clean and well-maintained by an attentive staff. I highly recommend Fatouche if you're in the area and feel like good Turkish or Middle Eastern food. The gyro ("yeah-row" here, NOT "jye-roh"), in particular, was especially good.

    I want to acknowledge that the New Orleans Healing Center does meaningful work in the community…read more Unfortunately, our family's experience with its internal management was extremely disappointing. My daughter, a white Hispanic woman and single mother, was terminated despite never having been formally written up or, to our knowledge, counseled for the supposed performance problems later used to justify her termination. When she challenged the reasons given and requested a written separation notice, the notice had to be rewritten multiple times because the explanations being provided kept changing. There had been ongoing interpersonal problems involving Devonte Bell that management, including Denise, was aware of. Rather than effectively addressing those problems, our family believes Devonte's personal conflict with problems involving my daughter was allowed to influence the decision to terminate her. We are also deeply concerned that race and gender may have played a role in how she was treated. Devonte is a Black male, while my daughter is a white Hispanic female, and based on the circumstances and the very different treatment she received, our family believes there are legitimate questions about discriminatory treatment that deserve examination. An organization can do wonderful things for its community and still have serious internal management problems. Employees deserve consistency, documentation, accountability, and fair treatment-not changing explanations after they have already been terminated. I sincerely hope the New Orleans Healing Center takes a closer look at its management practices, documentation procedures, employee relations, and accountability. The organization's mission deserves leadership and workplace practices that reflect the same values it promotes publicly.

    I love the idea of Saints. No, not the New Orleans sports balls team, the Catholic religious type…read moreof Saints. The theory, the idea that you can focus on a specific thing to help cure what ails you, or to blame if it all goes poorly. To focus all of the energy on something outside of yourself, and your own autonomy, out of the control of any actual human being. He is often pictured holding an image of Jesus at his heart, and a flame above his head. He was one of the original apostles and is the patron saint of hope and lost causes. St Jude is often invoked to help children with cancer, and there is a huge organization dedicated to it. I like the idea of them helping children, that is a very worthy cause. This shrine is next to the oldest church building in New Orleans, which also held the funeral services for those who passed from Yellow Fever in the late 1800s. It is a lovely shrine to have some reflection upon yourself and life in general. In my recent visit, I was approached twice by different people asking for money, which is kind of ironic. This is next to a Catholic Church who claims to help all people, and a shrine for lost causes. Anyways. This is a lovely spot for a moment of rest and reflection mere steps from the French Quarter.

    My staple church for my entire life so far and my ancestors. St. Jude Thaddeus, Guadalupe of Mary,…read moreBlessed Virgin Mary, the community, the staff are all wonderful, blessed. A peaceful beautiful divine home to be ONE with the Creator.
