New Orleans and Beignets

New Orleans is the place for great food and jazz.  Every where you turn there are great restaurants and one that I have to hit every time I am there ...  Cafe Du Monde.  Home of the Beignet and Cafe au lait.  What is there about the fluffy, sugary and messy beignet that is bad?  Answer: NOTHING.  They are perfect.   Cafe Du Monde has been in the French Market since 1862 and opened 24 hours a day.  That is impressive by anyone's standard.  There is nothing fancy or pretentious here just good fluffy, sweet goodness that begs to be washed down with the chicory laced cafe au lait.  




They do have other things to drink, but I always get the cafe au lait.  Just in case you need something else to drink here is the menu.



If you get to New Orleans stop in and enjoy.

Until next time: Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much
