Eat a beignet for me!
I don't really get beignets, though I'm sure that will pick a fight with some people here.
I've had them in CA and they're eh, I've had them twice here at two different famous spots and eh. They're basically donuts that are less tasty/satisfying/filling?...what's the point?
I'd rather have a croissant or a donut. This is some less satisfying middle ground and you get the powdered suger all over your lips and it turns gooey and feels gross until you wipe it off.
Otoh, the chicory(?) coffee is good. When I heard it was made from a terrible tasting tea that they pour coffee into 80/20 to hide the taste I was expecting something bad, but it tastes solid coffee.
At this point I've tried most of the snack+caffeine drink styles around the world and my favorite has got to be the English afternoon tea and a light slice of cake. That shit is relaxing and tasty and gives you a moment of peace and joy in a day. I guess I'm an old British grandma or something because I love that custom.
