Most recently (like yesterday) I was in New Orleans for work. What an interesting and unique city. The food, the people, the architecture, and overall culture just fascinated me. I thought it was charming and beautiful and a little bit haunted. Which I loved. Here are a few highlights.
Beignets from Cafe Du Monde. A heavenly little must-have. Fried and buried in sugar. |
The steamboat Natchez and view from the River Walk. |
Charming & colorful store fronts. |
Alligator & Shrimp Cheesecake from Jacques Imo's. I really can't say if it's better or worse than it looks, but you have to try it. |
The Godzilla came highly recommended from our waitress: Fried green tomatoes, eggplant and a soft shell crab. Uh-mazing. |
Humidity makes things grow. |
Night stroll on the River Walk. |
