Cafe Du Monde

Every time Michael and I go to New Orleans we have to stop at Cafe Du Monde for some beignets and Iced Coffee. The first time we went to New Orleans, we asked people what we should do while we were there and everyone said go to Cafe Du Monde! The coffee is this really nice blend of milk and coffee. The coffee has chickory in it...it is an interesting flavor. The Beignets are these little french doughnuts covered in powdered sugar. I would say they taste most like funnel cake. They are very yummy and we always stop to have a nice little treat. Michael always dips his hot beignets in his coffee. Cafe Du Monde has been located in the French Market since 1862. They are open 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Another fun little fact is, Cafe Du Monde was the first place to re-open in the French Quarter after Hurricane Katrina.
