Hotel Banquet 

A shitty pre-made meal served to hundreds of hapless guests by dozens of hapless servers. Usually features chicken cordon bleu.

Not a meal you wanted.
Guest 1: Hey what's for dinner after the wedding?

Guest 2: It's a hotel banquet!

Guest 1: shitty chicken cordon bleu?

Guest 2: Yep!
In New Orleans it refers to the old type of granite-curbed sidewalks found throughout the French Quarter, the Marigny, uptown and several other neighborhoods.
If you drive too fast in a rain you'll splash people walking on the banquette.
