I'm organizing a group trip to New Orleans in June. There will be 12-13 of us and I'm trying to find a Friday-night casual restaurant and a Sunday brunch spot in the French Quarter that will take reservations for such a large group. (French Quarter preferred as it's near the hotel and some folks have walking issues, but we can possibly branch out with cabs, etc.)

Visiting West Palm Beach, Florida area in a couple of weeks. Searches for cool things to do in the area (including previous AskMeFi answers) always bring up a price tag of around $100 for a family of four (japanese gardens, wildlife preserves etc). Any ideas for inexpensive things to do and see in the area. We've visited in previous years and have enjoyed driving the A1A, hanging out a Delray Beach, browsing at City Place in West Palm Beach. I'm a Dad traveling with three females ages 45, 20, 13 - and I'm sick of shopping. Many thanks.

Where is the best place in the world for a porter/stout (beer) enthusiast to travel if they want to taste it all? If there isn't a place that's best for those dark styles specifically, where do you go if you're a beer enthusiast generally?

I'll be visiting Monterey, CA for a weekend getaway soon (most likely the end of June), and I'd love some suggestions for what to do. I've been countless times with visiting relatives so have already done all the basic touristy stuff and chain restaurants, but don't know what else the area has to offer.

In two days I will be taking a series of flights to travel from Australia to Europe for a very much needed month long break. Unfortunately I have a bad cold, secondary infections in my throat and sinuses and generally feel like crap. Given that 27 hours of travel time is not likely to be kind to me, how can I avoid turning up in Edinburgh in even worse shape?

I will be travelling to the UK this May/June and will be in London on June 3. I have heard that for the
Jubilee Pageant on the Thames, some pubs along the river are accepting reservations for tables.
It seems like a great way to spend the day - does anyone have any specific recommendations for pubs along the Thames that I might contact?
