Some of the food of New Orleans

As a friend mentioned upon my return, I toured New Orleans on my stomach. Indeed.

Gumbo from Palace Cafe

Pork shank, braised in bourbon and strawberries from Palace Cafe

Dessert from Palace Cafe

Beignet from Cafe Du Monde

Grilled oysters from Drago's (their booth at the Oyster Festival)

Crawfish Etouffee from Deanies

Frog legs from Adolfo's

Flounder with Ocean Sauce from Adolfo's -- amazing!!

More beignets -- also amazing!

There would have been more, but I was too caught up in dining to take pics at Luke, Jimmy J's, and Cafe Soule.
