\"Morning<\/a>The “official state donut” of the State of Louisiana, the beignet (ben-yaa) has become synonymous with the stereotypical tourist stop in New Orleans at a joint in the French Quarter called “Cafe du Monde<\/a>.” \u00a0The pastries, developed by French bakers, use a type of dough that rises due to its own steam, rather than from yeast. \u00a0This type of baking is called “choux” pastries.<\/p>\n

French settlers brought the tradition during their immigration to Eastern Canada, and their later forced migration to Louisiana.<\/p>\n

The fried delicacies are generally sold in an order of three, accompanied by a shaker of powdered sugar and a steaming cup of cafe au lait or other local beverage.<\/p>\n

While most visitors experience the pastry at the aforementioned stop, the sweet delights are widely available. \u00a0An alternate choice is an old-timey stand in Metarie, ‘Morning Call”, which is open 24\/7 and is the local gathering place for die-hard denizens, particularly judges and lawyers.<\/p>\n

Morning Call now has a location in City Park, easily accessible to tourists via the Carrolton street car which you can catch on Canal. City Park is one of the nation’s most impressive green spaces, and is home to a number of diversions including the New Orleans Museum of Art.<\/p>\n

At \u00a0the “casino”, which isn’t one, you’ll find Morning Call, which you can enjoy your beignets and a few other local specialties in the splendor of the park.\"Morning<\/a><\/p>\n
