The infamous Herby K’s

Yes I did it. The whole thing. The shrimp buster, gumbo, onion rings and a big cup of coca cola. I even bought two t-shirts. One was for me and the other I will give to my little brother, Joey.  It had to happen, I knew from the moment I walked in. I don’t know which of the two I found more intriguing, the oyster shells in the alley or the neon sign on the wall inside above the AC unit. I’m also curious to know why there is an old school bathtub behind the bar. I am definitely going back for the answers… and a Poboy.

    Thanks for the website…love it and think you are absolutely wonderful. I loved seeing (and hearing) more of you in Eclipe! Herby-K’s is wonderful and always worth the wait. You certainly feel as though you have walked into a different place in history each time you go. I live in Shreveport and am SO excited that BD will partially be filmed in Louisiana!

    Wait to you come to the New Orleans area then you can get great seafood. New Orleans has great resturants, great music and good bars. When ya’ll come to film Breaking Dawn in Baton Rouge come down to New Orleans for your fun. Hopefully you will be filming during the Mardi Gras season. There are so many celebs that come down and dress in costume on Mardi Gras because than they are just another person. In fact alot don’t where costume and still have a great time. Of course I do not think it would work for Rob.
    Well I really enjoy all your acting. I think one of the reasons that Twilight series is such a hit is that the whole cast is like a family. I have not seen that in any movies before. Ya’ll get together away from the set. Keep up the great work.
    My best wishes to you and all the Twilight cast from a Twi-hard New Orleans fan.
    Cindy

    Nikki’s a very lovely woman and her site is great, of course. But does she even read these letters? Or why is Email required?…maybe to get a private letter? :)
