 | Located in the French Quarter at 800 Decatur Street, the Cafe Du Monde serves coffee with chicory (hot or iced), Cafe Au Lait (literally "coffee with milk"), fresh squeezed orange juice, beignets, and soft drinks. Incidentally, chicory comes from the roots of endive, a type of lettuce. It is roasted, ground, then added to fresh ground coffee to give it more body and flavor. |
 | Since they're known for Cafe Au Lait and beignets, it was natural to order these. It was quite inexpensive compared to the usual fare in the French Quarter. Yes, It tastes as good as it looks. For information and locations, visit their website at: www.cafedumonde.com |
