Brennan's is a five star restaurant in New Orleans. Brunch is very casual and delicious. The dinner menu is luxurious and detailed. New Orleans has so many places dine and to experience the Creole and Southern hospitality. Gaynor will fit in well with that old British money line in her family. ;)

Is Commanders Palace still operating? I know the Brennan family owned it. The bread pudding at CP was always my favorite.

@@Hornsfan64 it should be. The last time I was in New Orleans it was still open. I could not see any reason why Commander’s would close down.

Jolly was at Cafe Du Mond for the beignets. The beignets are doughnut like. Tasty when hot and fresh. Also, their coffee is a chickory coffee. It has a unique flavor and goes very well with the beignets. Cafe Du Mond is busy and fast paced usually with live music. New Orleans is a blast any time of the year. Almost any weekend has a Mardi Gras vibe on Bourbon Street. If you like great food, great drinks, drinking, great live music, dancing, and pleasant weather (usually hot and humid,) you've got to go!

Beignets don't usually have anything inside. Just fried dough and powdered sugar. But around my way in North New Jersey they had a shop called Bourbon Street Beignet that recently closed down. They had artisan beignets with stuff inside like apple cinnamon, s'mores, jelly, raspberry, blueberry, cookies & cream, cereal, etc stuffed inside. It was good, I'm sad it closed down.

when I went to school in San Francisco there was a soul food restaurant called Brenda's and they made both a savory crawfish beignet, but chocolate and cinnamon apple filled as well. Super tasty

Ah, Cafe Du Monde. I know it well. I lived in the New Orleans area for several years back in the 90's and the beignets and chicory coffee are amazing. When family and friends visited we always went to Cafe Du Monde for the beignets and coffee and without exception they all raved at how delicious and unique they were. Such great memories.

The way to get rid of the texture of the peanut butter on the roof of your mouth is to put a slice of lettuce on your sandwich. It will provides a barrier between the roof of your mouth and the peanut butter. Tastes great, too!
@BigBilly-io3kf5 ай бұрын
If Daz doesn’t like crowds, then Mardi Gras isn’t the time to visit. You definitely have to eat beignets when they are warm. Once they get cold, they get hard. When I’ve been to Cafe du Monde, and you want beignets to take away, you can only pay in cash. If you go to NO, try combining it with a trip to Baton Rouge to see an LSU football game. Baton Rouge is about 1.5 hours north of NO. If you plan to spend the night in Baton Rouge after the game, then book your hotel in advance. Hotel rooms in BR run about $110 - 150/nite with the big chain hotels. However, for Saturday night, if you book during football season, they shoot up to $450/nite. The $79/nite motels will go for $250/nite. Airbnb locations dry up, and hotels within an hour’s drive of LSU also shoot up in price and sell out. Surprisingly, hotel rooms in NO don’t increase. I learned this the hard way in Nov. LSU was playing Florida. Rooms at the Hilton were $110 on Monday - Friday and Sunday, but rooms shot up to $450 for Saturday if you booked one - two weeks before the game. It was also $110/nite if you booked weeks in advance. I spent Sat nite in NO, along with a ton of others who were there for the game. They told me this is common, which is why they stay in NO, and make the drive. Baton Rouge, like Tuscaloosa (AL) and Athens (GA), doesn’t have the hotel bed capacity to accommodate the large crowds, hence the spike in pricing.

I've been to Cafe du Monde and I didn't like the Beignets or the coffee, which is cut with chicory. But it doesn't matter--it's something you have to do in New Orleans. Bananas Foster is outrageously good. I'm not a fan of ripe bananas, but caramalized? Oh yeah! I make a mean bread pudding, but sometimes I find a bread pudding that rivals mine. I have to say, though, this is all New Orleans, which isn't exactly 'Southern' cuisine. It's a separate category, I think. Southern desserts have a lot of peach, citrus fruit, pecan, buttermilk, chocolate, etc., and very often include bourbon.

As someone who wants to see the area probably definitely don't visit during Mardi Gras unless thats what you want to see. Otherwise it will be harder to get around at certian point. Not from there but I've visited both during and not. From Virginia in the U.S. if anyone reads and is wondering.

I want to just try to pass along a word of advice. If millions of people across the world like peanut butter then it deserves a try. Don't simply dismiss something because you assume it tastes like nuts. It would not be a thing separate from peanuts if it was only the same. And similarly with bananas and particularly Bananas Foster,.if they are preparing a dish from bananas and millions have eaten it in their restaurant then just perhaps it's worth a try rather than assuming it's like any other fruit banana. Give people a bit of credit and first assume it's likely good.

I was sitting outside of cafe du mond one evening, just people watching, and I saw a movement out of the corner of my eye. I glanced over and was horrified to see rats running under the tables, now mind you, this was early evening and the cafe was packed. No one even acted like they felt rats running over their feet. I had been there that very morning, blithely eating beignets myself. I loved New Orleans and hope to go back one day, but I don’t think I’ll eat at the cafe again.
