Cafe du Monde

After a very good breakfast near our hotel, later we went to Cafe du Monde for “lunch.” Cafe au lait and beignets.

A little powdered sugar??

texastweeter I'm from South Louisiana, I was eating powdered sugar on that before my first bottle.

"Would you like some beignets with your powdered sugar?"

[theroc]

Awesome. We order ours “light on the sugar, please.” They are happy to comply.

[texastweeter]

Man thats a classic!!! Get black coffee and beignets every time im there.

Looks great. A must place to visit. Just don't wear a black shirt when eating those!

I haven't been to New Orleans yet but the local stores carry Cafe du Monde's beignet mix which I buy every now and then.

Love me some benights at Cafe du Monde. When in NOLA, you gotta go there. Always fun.

Baked oysters (Rockefeller or Creole) are a must too. Had one of the best Poboy sandwiches ever at the Acme Oyster house - pot roast poboy.

Go to the Old Absinthe House and see the old absinthe stations. Though it is now a sports bar, the absinthe stations are still there (or were).

Love CDM. I used to live a couple blocks from there. Corner of Gov Nicholls and Decatur. I need to get back to New Orleans. ♥️

Looks good! I'll have to settle for my Cafe du Monde chicory coffee. <sigh>

Actually drinking French Market's version today... finished a can of Cafe du Monde and then opened the French Market one yesterday. Boy CdM's version is super strong. Took me a little bit to get used to it, both are more robust than the Community Coffee version I'm used to drinking - but I still like it!

We've been there so many times. Never once had a bad beignet or a bad cuppa, either. I love that place.

Nice to hear you're enjoying it, jayjordan .
