Beer and Beignets in New Orleans: A Divine Pairing
Visiting New Orleans has been a bucket list trip for me since 2010 when a friend posted on Facebook a photo of a quant looking coffee shop with a pastry mounted with white sugar almost as tall as their coffee cup. Almost 10 years later, I finally had the opportunity to indulge myself in a New Orleans food and booze journey that could only be summed up as voodoo magic for the soul. The trip had one goal: to eat beignets daily, if not twice, and try local breweries. After a rocky start getting late to our hotel the day we arrived and local eateries mostly closing, I started the trip with some leftover plane snacks and a glass of wine for dinner dreaming of the culinary journey to come. Early to rise the next morning we set out on our first stop of the many to the heart of the French Quarter, which housed the mecca of pastry perfection: New Orleans world-famous beignets. Having tasted and sipped my way through the city, the following is my list of the BEST beignets and beers in the city.
