At 600 Decatur Street in New Orleans, Cafe Beignet pairs powdered-sugar beignets with a casual cafe menu and live music. The traditional beignets arrive hot, crisp outside and soft inside; caramel praline is another option, though its flavor may not suit everyone. For a savory meal, look for the crawfish omelet, muffaletta or crawfish étouffée. Order at the counter, then settle in for music and a bright, airy dining room. Portions of beignets are large enough to share.
A cafe menu beyond beignets
Beignets are the signature order, but you can make this stop a meal. The crawfish omelet is filled with crawfish, while the muffaletta comes with olive salad. Crawfish étouffée is another savory choice, served with herb-butter French bread; rice can be left off the order.
Choosing a beignet
Traditional beignets come hot, with a generous dusting of powdered sugar. Caramel praline is a richer variation, though the caramel flavor can come through lightly. The large portions suit sharing, especially if you want to try more than one style.
