Published: Oct. 6, 2016, 5 a.m.

b'Somewhere along the line, somebody decided that seeing we live in an environment of extreme humidity and termites, it would be a great idea if we all lived in wooden houses. As a consequence, we re pretty much all familiar with the headaches of renovation and construction. But not as familiar as Scott Wolfe. Scott s company, Zlien, specializes in taking on the painful parts of construction so other people in the construction industry don t have to. Andrew Preble is the creator of one of the most unique and popular entertainment attractions in the city. It s called Escape My Room. If you haven t experienced it yourself or know someone who has, on this edition of Out to Lunch you ll find out why thousands of New Orleanians think Andrew is a genius. Peter Ricchiuti spends a lively lunch talking about how to get into a building with Scott Wolfe and how to get out of a building with Andrew Preble. Photos at Commander s Palace by Alison Moon.
