Su-Jit Lin once left her native New York on a whim and a gut feeling and has yet to regret the spontaneous shift that has led her to one of the most amazing and character-rich cities in the world. A cum laude Tulane University graduate, majoring in History and English, she has found it impossible to stay away from the one place that’s managed to capture her heart and speak to her spirit: New Orleans. Residing uptown, working downtown, and writing for Where Y'At Magazine smack dab in the middle of the Garden District, she takes full advantage of everything in between – or at least tries desperately to keep up with the frenzied activity! Pastimes include freelance writing and editing, travel, painting, music, her dog, and excuses to wear a scarf. Most importantly, she loves with a deep passion good food and drink, and all things New Orleans … even the poisonous caterpillars that seem programmed to find her year round.

Category Cocktails
The lounge at Zoe, the uber-contemporary restaurant housed on the second floor of the trendy W Hotel New Orleans, is making the light of the hurricanes that plague us every year and creating a great time out of it with Category Cocktail specials. Stronger drinks denote a stronger cocktail, and every day until November 31, the official end of hurricane season, drinks are offered for a steal from 3 pm till. The menu goes a little something like this, whimsically categorizing strength and price:
Category $1: Eager Evacuator shot
Category $2: Stormy Sangria (yum, yum!)
Category $3: Contraflow Coronas
Category $4: Windy Wines
Category $5: Gustav Guzzler
This swank bar becomes temptingly affordable at rates like these, and a tapas menu with prices starting at $6 easily lures you into drinking for dinner and snacking for fun.
