I need to get back to Louisiana. I needs me some Crawfish, real Gumbo and maybe a dozen or more fried Catfish as well.

Oh and I have to get some Beignets from Cafe Du Monde.

We used to own 1025 St Peter in the French Quarter.  I lived there when I was 18/19.  

I'm going back this June for a family reunion.  You better BELIEVE I'm wearing my stretchy pants.

I get to go maybe once a year, I have tons of family down there and it is where my dad grew up.  We have been throwing huge crawfish boils for the neighborhood once a year in Texas, always good times.

The real Beignets come from Morning Call in Metarie!!!  Non of that touristy bullshit Cafe Du Monde.

I've not been to Cade Du Monde since... like the early 90s, when I was a kid, soooo I didn't know that their Beignets weren't real.

They are a different critter.  The ones down here taste like spicy shrimp.  Mmmmmm.  I prefer them to shrimp as a matter of fact.

Morning Call moved to Metarie probably over 20 years ago.  Cafe au Lait and beignets are still the same and a lot of the furnishings were moved to the new location.  Wish they had stayed in the french quarter, but the french market location just down the street from Cafe Du Monde was charging too much for rent.
