Best French Bakery in Killona

"About Beignets: Any time you go to New Orleans one of the first questions your friends will ask is, “Did you get a beignet at Cafe De Monde?. ” Beignets are square French-style doughnuts, lavishly covered with powdered sugar, and they are delicious. While there are much more hearty dishes on our top ten must-eats in New Orleans, having a beignet is almost a right of passage in the Big Easy."

"Café Du Monde is always open; it’s the clientele that changes—from visiting families and local pensioners early in the morning, to couples in the evening, to Bourbon Street refugees looking for coffee and ballast in the..."

"The Po-Boy was invented in New Orleans and is a staple food with local’s so needless to say it’s a must eat in New Orleans. The most popular Po-boy with local’s and visitor’s alike are the shrimp or oyster Po-boy but at Parkway Bakery and Tavern they serve the most unbelievable Surf & Turf Po-Boy’s you will ever have!. Trust us on this one."

"This family-owned, casual neighborhood joint is a top choice for classic, overstuffed po-boys. It has grown in popularity but the friendly staff still takes care of the locals, welcoming tourists like they’re family as well. Shrimps are fried to perfection, roast beef is sufficiently messy and the Barq's (and beer) is served icy cold."

"A caprese po-boy includes tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Reservations accepted for large parties. Lunch and dinner Wed.-Mon."

"The brainchild of Besh Restaurant Group pastry chef Kelly Fields and baker Lisa White, this bakery serves a variety of loaves of bread, sweet and savory pastries, and treats like salted chocolate chip cookies and Rice Krispie bars. Willa Jean also offers a full sit-down menu for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, but the front case of goodies is a sight to behold."

"Willa Jean is one of the most talked about restaurants in New Orleans. With fresh ingredients, a Southern-rustic feel, and all around great food, it is a go-to for many. Their twist on the classic milk and cookies is delicious."

"Nice weather calls for alfresco dining at this cute courtyard, French Quarter restaurant. Share bites of slow-cooked spiced lamb shank and Atlantic salmon with fingerling potatoes and horseradish cream. And save room for doberge cake after!"

"This French Quarter restaurant has been around for ages and it’s the gorgeous courtyard and good food that keep people coming back. If you’re after a drink and a good meal in a classic Nola setting, Café Amelie is your jam."

"Exceptional food, drinks, and value in a gorgeous courtyard setting!. Ambience is just wonderful. Very romantic with the string lights and…”more"

"Located in the heart of Historic French Quarter, Café Fleur-De-Lis is a cozy counter service café that serves hearty breakfast and lunch meals with ample portions in a casual, relaxed setting. They’re focused on Southern tastes and flavors, and breakfasters can enjoy a Creole Country Breakfast of grilled Boudin sausage, eggs cooked any style, homemade biscuits and a bowl of grits, eggs Benedict, and Farmer’s Omelets filled with mushrooms, bell peppers, and spinach. Other classic dishes range from breakfast platters, French toast, buttermilk pancakes, and breakfast sandwiches and wraps to shrimp and grits, biscuits and gravy, eggs Florentine, and fresh fruit bowls."

"Cafe Fleur De Lis is a great example of the “Southern Cooking” experience. Located in the heart of the historical French Quarter, they serve traditional New Orleans breakfasts and lunches. Lunch at Cafe Fleur De Lis usually includes seafood and poboys, but at their breakfast you can find eye-opening cocktails, benedicts, omelettes, french toast and their “Sweet Cream” pancakes."

"Lizardi rolls are egg rolls filled with cabbage, crabmeat, shrimp and crawfish seasoned with Asian and Cajun spices and served with sweet chili sauce. Reservations accepted. Lunch daily, dinner Mon.-Sat."

"Bakers Dozen serves some of the best donuts in New Orleans, from the traditional classics to more creative creations such as a salty caramel pretzel donut. Everything here is bursting with flavour and some of the finest, most inventive ingredients around. Apple fritters and honeybuns are particularly delicious here, but you should definitely sample one of their seasonal specialty donuts while you’re at it, too."

"You have to get here early to get your fix, since they’re only open until 11 am (and closed Mondays and Tuesdays), but this straightforward spot is a favorite of local epicures and chefs for a reason. They make great basics, like the glazed twist, and do them brilliantly. But they also have a little more fun with themed specials, like during Carnival season when they make a mind-blowing donut king cake."

"Baker's Dozen in Jefferson has set itself apart with creatively themed doughnuts — munch on your favorite super hero for $1.50 — as well as delicious combinations like its sweet and salty caramel pretzel doughnut (pictured). All up, a nice neighborhood spot with lots of regulars."

"There’s not much to say about the Avenue Pub that hasn’t already been said in scores of local and national publications. The Pub’s beer selection, excellent staff, and unique events have vaulted it to the top of many “best of” lists, and rightfully so. Owner Polly Watts has influenced on the growth of New Orleans’ beer scene in big ways — and her relationships with Belgian and Scandinavian brewers have brought beers to the city that no one else has."

"The Avenue Pub is the undisputed leader of the New Orleans beer movement. Polly Watts’ 24-hour beer bar has close to 50 taps of local, regional, and national craft brands, as well as imports from Belgium, Germany, Italy and the U.K. When brewery owners roll into town, The Avenue is their first stop."

"The Avenue Pub can be found in the historic Lower Garden District of New Orleans. It is the best place to go for craft beer enthusiasts. It is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year."

"You might not automatically picture burgers and sandwiches when you think of New Orleans, but that’s just because you’ve never been to Faubourg Bistro. The menu is full of well-priced favorites, like a hearty bistro burger and Southern chicken sandwich. They also have more unique offerings like a firecracker cauliflower burger and PB&J chicken wings."

"Alon Shaya’s take on modern Israeli food offers a unique menu, bringing elevated, New Orleans twists to traditional Israeli food at Saba. Some worthy menu items include the Blue Crab Hummus, Oyster Schnitzel, Moroccan Carrot Salad, or Caviar and potato chips, but those might not pique the interest of a five year-old. Offerings for the kids include classic hummus with seasonal vegetables or fries that even the adults will want to steal, labneh with fruit, eggs with smashed avocado and pita, lamb burger in a pita, and chicken skewers with rice and seasonal vegetables."

"Over the past year, Saba has upgraded its outdoor space fronting Magazine Street to offer comfortably chic dining digs in any kind of weather through its mix of tented and open-air tables. This airy Uptown corner shines in the spring, as do dishes that show off the best of the season. Pillowy pita and savory spreads (like the popular blue crab hummus) prepare the palate for heartier fare like matzah ball soup with slow cooked duck or latkes with cured salmon and caviar."

"Saba showcases chef Alon Shaya’spenchant for using farm fresh ingredients to create flavorful Israeli and Mediterranean fare. Enjoy the likes of harissa chicken salad and falafel with Shaya’s famed pita in the roomy, protected outdoor garden under two tents with greenery and fans."

"Bourrée is a casual spinoff of parent restaurant Boucherie next door. Bourrée’s smokehouse offerings are best enjoyed in finger-licking relaxation at one of the beer garden’s purple picnic tables. Wings, a house specialty, come in a range of preparations from jerk to sweet mango BBQ."

"Nathanial Zimet's gutsy, down-home cooking, a unique blend of Louisiana and contemporary Southern styles, fits right in at its cozy location...Read More"

"The team at Warehouse District food hall Auction House has an on-trend new cocktail menu for summer, offering a Kalimotxo that marries the traditional Basque punch and a Whiskey Sour; a Barcelona style G&T with gin, El Guapo tonic, thyme, clove, house tincture, and grapefruit; and the cloudy Pau Hana, made with rum, manzanilla sherry, lime, banana and pimento dram. The bright, plant-filled space makes for a nice setting to sip drinks, and there’s are new happy hour specials weekdays from 4 to 7 p.m."

"I've enjoyed everything from the Yum Woon Sen Noodles at Long Chim Thai Street Food to a Bibimbap Salad at Happy Jaxx to empanadas from Empanola Empanadas at Auction House Market ... all super delicious!"

"You’ll be spellbound by this small museum located in an old French Quarter enclave right off Bourbon Street. Boasting priestess portraits, wooden masks, and a few human skulls for good measure, the museum explores the lore, legends, mystery, and magic of voodoo, a spiritual folk tradition of the African diaspora that has shaped NoLa since the city first developed in the 1600s. It doesn’t have a website, but most other sites list it as being open from 10 to 6 every day of the week."

"There are many reasons the city of New Orleans is such a popular tourist destination, one of them being the fascinating religion of Voodoo. The New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum explores the mysterious side of New Orleans’ fabled history. Located in the heart of the French Quarter (between Bourbon and Royal streets), the museum’s mission is to preserve the legacy of New Orleans’ Voodoo history and culture while educating and entertaining visitors."
