The shop has moved from sharing space with Big Sexy Neon at 1618 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. to a new location at 1420 Annunciation St. Its soft opening will be Monday (Feb. 14), in time for Valentine’s Day and the heart of the Carnival season. Owner Kirby Jones initially opened La Vie En Rose Café as a bike café pop-up at Martin’s Wine Cellar.

Wetlands Sake in the Lower Garden District, the first sake brewery in New Orleans, will celebrate its grand opening on Tuesday (Feb. 8). New Orleans natives Lindsey Beard and Nan Wallis are at the helm of the project that serves different sakes brewed at their taproom on Orange Street. Wetlands Sake has been three years in the making. Wallis traveled to New York City and noticed that sake had become a staple of many restaurant menus.
