New Orleans, Louisiana has by far the best tasting food in the world! I have traveled to Europe, Mexico, all over the States and Canada and have never been more impressed with the taste, selection and quality of food as I have been in New Orleans. No matter what priced-restaurant you go to, you will be pleased. Some of my favorites for sure are the Beignets. Cafe Du Monde is the famous spot for Beignets and Chicory Coffee but there are some other spots that sell them as well as in Cafe Beignet,and they are just as good there. The Acme Oyster House has delicous barbequed oysters as well as other fare on their menu that is just as good and it's not pricey at all. Deanie's Seafood in the French Quarter has the best fried fish I have every tasted and the portions are humongous!!!!!! I had the best duck sandwich, hot german potatoe salad and chilled cucumber soup at a bar no less, their bar food was amazing and with hundreds of beers from around the world, how could you go wrong at the Avenue Pub on St Charles Street. The best ice cream in New Orleans is at the Creole Creamery on Prytania St., they have so many creamy flavors you won't know which ones to sample some with lavender, saffron and red pepper but there are traditional flavors as well. A nice breakfast spot is called Eat Restaurant in the French Quarter. Everything is fresh and organic and the fried green tomatoes and country grits with bisquits are yummy! And you must try a Pimm's Cup at the Napoleon House in the Quarter, they are so refreshing in the New Orlean's heat and it's the oldest bar in town. And one of the best hamburgers I have ever tasted was next to the The Boot Bar, Tulane's campus bar and the inside eatery is called the Dough Bowl. I hear their pizza is good too. Really any restaurant you venture into in the Big Easy will satisfy your desire for great food filled with spices, sauces, traditon and southern soul. You can't go wrong with a trip to New Orleans, Louisiana for a sampling of the best food in the world!!!!!.
