Cafe Du Monde
Description
This French-market coffee stand, established in 1862, offers a menu of dark coffee and chicory, beignets, white or chocolate milk and freshly-squeezed orange juice. Cafe Du Monde is one of the most popular places in New Orleans for singles, couples and families. You may have to wait for a table during the busiest morning hours. While the coffee is certainly good, most people come for the famous, fresh-from-the-fryer beignets. They are brought to your table in such a hurry that they are still hot when you take that first melt-in-your-mouth bite. If you feel hungry at anytime of the day, hop in to devour this delicious array!
What a way to start the day. The beignets are hot and coated with a thick layer of powdered sugar. You are near the river and can hear the boats on the water. The servers are quick to take your order.
