The First Ever Audi Q9
The most spacious Audi ever built — with more interior room than other full-size luxury three-row SUVs. Starting at $87,700. Arriving later this year. Start your order with Audi Baton Rouge.
At 209 inches long with a 123.5-inch wheelbase, the Q9 is Audi's first full-size three-row flagship. Up to 87.7 cubic feet of cargo. A twin-turbo V6 delivers 429 horsepower with quattro® all-wheel drive standard. Zero to 60 in 4.9 seconds.
Available curved digital OLED taillights are a production first. Available automatic doors open and close on command. Inside, a 12.3-inch passenger display is standard — and the panoramic sunroof is the largest Audi has ever offered.

On the Table
The Hallelujah Crab at Juban's
There's a certain Baton Rouge restaurant that has figured out how to be formal without being stiff — jacket on, white cloth, a Creole kitchen that treats the Gulf like a pantry it owns. That's Juban's, on the Perkins corridor, and the dish to build a table around is the Hallelujah Crab: a crispy soft-shell, seafood stuffing underneath, Gruyère pomme purée, creolaise poured over the whole business. It is not subtle and it is not trying to be. It's named like a gospel line and it earns the exclamation.
Open with the Chicken, Duck and Andouille Gumbo — a cup if you're disciplined, a bowl if you're honest — or split the Oyster Duo, Rockefeller and Bienville side by side, before the Redfish Adrian comes out dressed in lump crab, mushrooms, and a Creole meunière that takes the fish seriously. This is a two-person room. Book it for the night you're going downtown anyway, eat early, and let the kitchen do the heavy lifting before the house lights come up somewhere else. Closed Mondays, so plan around it.

In the Cup
The Chocolate Cappuccino at Highland Coffees
At the North Gates of campus, where Highland Road meets Chimes, there's a room that has been roasting its own beans since 1989 — which in college-town years is roughly forever. Highland Coffees doesn't do brunch theater or a fifty-item menu. It does coffee, roasted on site, poured by people who have been doing it long enough to not perform about it. The drink to order is the Chocolate Cappuccino, straight off the espresso board, chocolate folded into milk foam over a real double shot. No seasonal name, no syrup you can't pronounce. Just the drink, done right.
Take it to the courtyard if the weather's behaving — it mostly is this time of year — or hold a corner table with a laptop and nobody will rush you. A solo morning, or two people before a drive or a campus errand. A place, not a waiting room.

On the Wrist
The Gallet Multichron Pilot, No Allocation Theater
Some watches you can admire and never buy. This isn't one of them. Gallet — revived under Breitling's House of Brands — has brought back the 1969 Multichron Pilot, and the point of it is that you can walk in and get one. No waitlist, no gray-market tax, no performance about scarcity. Just a 42mm steel pilot's chronograph with a tri-compax dial, exactly the watch the name promises.
The details are the fun part. A bi-directional 12-hour bezel for a second time zone. A reverse-panda face in black and silver, or a denim-blue dial if you want to lean into the moment. Inside, the Gallet 23 — a worked Sellita SW510 — holding 62 hours in reserve. It reads $4,400 on a strap, $4,600 on the bracelet. Fresh out of Geneva Watch Days, and it's not a Speedmaster retread or a clearance-bin Breitling. It's a pilot chrono you can actually own, which these days is the rarest spec of all.
