This is a great review of the Louisiana statutes. As you point out there seems to be a conflict, however the section granting authority to carry a concealed handgun is the later statute. It specifies the locations authorized for carry. The earlier statute prohibits carrying a handgun at all. So if you (licensed) could be arrested for carrying in a restaurant, presumably you could be arrested for carrying anywhere.
