ZEA ROTISSERIE
1401 W. Esplanade Ave. (The Esplanade Mall), Kenner 468-7733; 1655 Hickory Ave., Harahan 738-079 Obviously, Zea is famous for its selection of rotisserie meat and chicken, but the Thai ribs (pork ribs marinated in Thai sauce and slow cooked with sesame seeds and cilantro) are 'zelicious' at Zea's Rotisserie. The less carnivorous enjoy the entree-size spinach salad dressed with pepper jelly vinaigrette. No reservations. Lunch and dinner daily. Credit cards. $$

ZEA ROTISSERIE & BREWERY
4450 Veterans Memorial Blvd., Metairie 780-9090 Spring-like but with true spunk is a salad that starts with fresh leaf spinach with sun-dried tomatoes, raisins, roasted pecans, sesame seeds, kalamata olives, blue cheese and a signature pepper jelly vinaigrette dressing. Carnivores can chew on Thai ribs: premium-cut St. Louis-style spare ribs seasoned and slow roasted. No reservations. Delivery available. Lunch and dinner daily. Credit cards. $$

ZEKE'S RESTAURANT
1517 Metairie Road, Metairie 832-1133 Zeke's prepares oysters on the half-shell with garlic butter and a special seasoning and then grills them on an open fire. The boiled seafood, which changes seasonally, is popular with the serious seafood connoisseur. Reservations recommended for large parties. Breakfast Sat.-Sun., lunch and dinner daily. Credit cards. $$

ZOE BISTRO
333 Poydras St. (W Hotel) 207-5018; www.zoebistrot.com This hip eatery boasts a menu of elegant dishes from starters like the fried green tomato Napoleon to entrees like the redfish sauteed in brown butter and topped with lump crabmeat. The Pink Poodle dessert is in fact a pink poodle made from strawberry meringue served atop a chocolate torte. Reservations recommended. Breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. Credit cards. $$$

ZYDEQUE
808 Iberville St. 565-5520; www.zydeque.com Named by Esquire Magazine as "The Best New Barbecue Restaurant in America," Zydeque smokes its Cajun, dry-rubbed barbecue over hickory and pecan right in the heart of the French Quarter. Chef Tenney Flynn fills the plates with Memphis-style ribs accompanied by boudin balls and the Southern Comfort mashed sweet potatoes sell well all day long. No reservations. Lunch and dinner daily. Credit cards. $$
