Louisiana Purchase Plat du Jour Menu


The Napoleon House was invited by the New Orleans Museum of Art to create a special menu in commemoration of the Louisiana Purchase Bicentennial. Based loosely on the war campaigns of Napoleon Bonaparte, stately offerings of President Jefferson and Louisiana cooking traditions, the Bicentennial Celebration Menu offers a choice of special appetizers, signature entrees and desserts.

During dinner hours you will receive a custom-designed commemorative white china plate when ordering from the special menu: one featuring Napoleon’s signature and laurel wreath motif or one with Thomas Jefferson’s well-known signature and a stylized Federal star.

It will be served for a limited time only.
