Dreaming of Beignets
Beignets and Cafe au Lait from Cafe du Monde in New Orleans.
This week, I am on an all fruit and veggie diet (first time ever) and all I can think of is beignets. I took this picture 2 weeks ago after a long walk though the French Quarter, so I deserved to enjoy these warm, fluffy, pillow-shapped donut topped with powder sugar… I cannot wait to go back to Cafe du Monde and devour an order or two!

Oh My God! And you had to go and show that photo! I’ll be dreaming of them now!
Hahaha… I am wondering when they will be implementing delivery.
Serpa’s restaurant down the street here in Atlanta has beignets – I’m dying to try them!
It’s just not fair – this is the second time this week I’ve seen pics of beignets. I want one !!
This photo makes them look so enticing.
POW-WOW !! Oh, so very drool-worthy. Slowly backing away from the screen. Maybe. In a few hours. Theadora
Does pie count as fruit and veggie? It does in my book, all that fruit filling and let’s not forget what the dough is made of. Well I’m sure you’ll find a loophole somewhere or just surrender to those temptations. It’s win-win.
Trust me, I have gone through the week thinking of ways to justify some delicious dishes that I have been shooting, but not eating… LOL
Had the cafe du monde beignets once a few years back, this picture brings back fond memories of a wonderful trip in New Orleans!
You just had to go there 🙂
Great photos…I can taste the chicory!
