I've noticed that the best bloggers constantly post, and so as not to lose my current loyal readership (hi Jess!), I decided to share some photos from my first day in NOLA. Today was spent walking up and down the streets of the French Quarter, with stops every so often to nosh on some delicious New Orleans fare - gumbo at K. Paul's, a muffaletta from Central Grocery and afternoon coffee and beignets at Cafe du Monde, which is where I ran into my friend Dave from New York and his lovely wife Kelli. They spotted me sitting outside about to inhale a pound of powdered sugar (it was not pretty). That's Dave in the photo below! He's pontificating as to whether or not he should get a to-go bag for the mounds of powdered sugar left on his plate. Sadly, we were so wrapped up in conversation, I forgot to take a photo of the beignets, which looked amazing and tasted even better!
