![]() | The original Cafe du Monde is or was a very lovely cafe with terrace on the New Orleans waterfront. You will have visited there if you've been to New Orleans as a tourist. IIRC it was nearly destroyed some years ago by a ship overshooting its berth in the harbor, so it is assuredly low-lying and hence very possibly gone. There is, however, a branch office in the suburbs so maybe the company is not gone -- just the original shop with the cafe au lait and beignets that you wouldn't dare refer to as just plain coffee and donuts. |
