It took me 3 months but I finally wrote a little bit more about my trip to New Orleans back in March. Cafe Du Monde to be specific. I'm telling you, that town is magical. I found a place in Seattle last week that had beignets on the menu. They were good, but no comparison. None.

Yeah, this is the book I got signed and then had to leave at the store when I realized I left my wallet at home. Amazon doesn't care if I left my wallet at home thankfully.
It is my duty to ask this question, which place had the beignets?

Marcela's Cookery in Pioneer Square. I hear they also have them at the Center House (hello food court) at the Seattle Center though I've never tried them there. Oh, and also Cafe Flora which I have tried before but it's been a while.

I think that was my favorite part of what I saw of New Orleans. That and the ironwork.

I have tried the ones at the center house in the Seattle center, and I liked them... but I don't have anything else to compare to know how good they are. By the way, in Swahili, they have something similar and they call it mandazi
