...Galatoire's. The only legendary restaurant in the French Quarter that lives up to its billing. (Arnaud's, Brennan's and Antoine's, with their dreary, badly prepared food, need not apply, and Paul Prudhomme's newer legend, K-Paul's, is a hassle and uneven.)

And yet there is still a gap, caused by a pervasive institutional nervousness about how to deal with minority culture while maintaining the ideal of purely aesthetic standards. For ethnic art repeats the problems posed for museums by women's art: it is prone to easy stereotyping...
