I wanted an atypical image of this historic and popular cafe. Everyone gets photos of either the wonderful coffee and beignets or the outside awning. I was impressed by the waitstaff and how busy they were lining up to get coffee for their customers. It hints at just how busy the cafe is without showing the long line of people waiting to get in or the size of the dining area.
And for those of you looking for a photo of coffee and beignets, this one’s for you:
Milford Street 
And thank you for the “sweet” memories!
wow. how tasty that looks!
So good! The trick is not wearing the powdered sugar out of there.
That’s a lot of powdered sugar!!
We wondered how much powdered sugar they use.
It looks like they dumped half a box on the plate.
Ha! I was gonna mention not to inhale while eating these. Or don’t wear a black dress, either! But they are so darn good! Great photos, Chris.
Tanks Lois. Yeah, I inhaled and had on dark colored pants. I was a mess.
So now it’s coffee time ☕️ I prefer cream over sugar but it does look delicious Chris 😋 compose a peaceful day ~ smiles from etown 💫
Thanks, Hedy. Smiles back!
Oh, you are tempting us!! Nice contrasting scenes.
Thank you so much. Cheers!
Yess! ☕️
Wow – the photo of the workers in black and white made me wonder how old the photo was!
And the coffee looks so good and had to laugh at the powdered sugar piled that high.
They must go through a lot in a day – wonder what their pastries taste like
The pastries are served still warm. We wondered how much they use in a day. The photo looks like it could be rather old except for the waitstaff person wearing a hoodie. Thank you. Cheers
Oh just realized that hoodie second to the right!
That B&W is stellar, Chris. Love the symmetry.
Oh, thank you so much!
Love the photo…powerful! I think I need a refill of coffee!
Thank you. I really wanted a different image from such an iconic place.
I hope you weren’t wearing black when you had the beignets! hahaha We were just talking about maybe visiting NOLA this year too!
No, just dark brown. 😂
But did you get poofed by the sugar? lol
Oh, most definitely. But everyone does. You can tell whose been at Cafe Du Monde by the telltale white powder.
Excellent shot of the waiters! And thanks for the beignet and coffee – I know what I’ll be daydreaming about today. 😉
Love this!
Oh, thank you so much.
❤️💕❤️
the b/w photo is brilliant!!
now, who said coffee and beignets 😀
Thank you…So delicous. I wish it were closer.
