Astor House, the charming little eatery in Central Phoenix, may be the smallest of owner DJ Fernandes’ three restaurants (next-door Tuck Shop and Vovomeena on Seventh Avenue and McDowell being the other two), but it’s celebrating a big milestone.

At 1 p.m. Sunday, April 14, Astor House will celebrate its one-year anniversary with what Fernandes is calling a “mega-authentic N’awlins crawfish boil.”
And the lobster-like freshwater crustaceans won’t be the only New Orleans treat at the party.
When news happens, Phoenix New Times is there —

In addition to the crawfish boil, Fernandes, who spent time in New Orleans to attend architectural school, will be serving up muffuletta, the Sicilian-style sandwich that originated in the French Quarter, and King Cake, the colorful, ring-shaped cake popular during Mardi Gras.
The cost of the all-you-can-eat event is $12 per person (plus three bucks a beer). Simply show up if you’re planning on attending. Fernandes says the celebration will last “till the beer and bugs are gone. Like at dark.”
