Bignets at Flip Flops

[Paula]

We stopped by Flip Flops yesterday and got 20 excellent bignets for $6.99 to go (there were four of us and I think I ate half of them by myself). They were soooooo good and are now going to be part of our regular SoWal tradition. Thank you Flip Flops!

Yellow Fin Outdoors will be upset to know one can score 20 bignets for $6.99 at Flip Flops.

Oh, you meant beignets

You do pronounce the name correctly, right? BEN-YAY!

Sorry, couldn't resist I owe you an order for being a jerk

The best fried dough you will ever had.

Last weekend I did the Saturday morning coffee next door and then went to flip flops for the beignets. Sorry I had forgotten to post about how excellent both places were. The weather was slightly cool and sitting out watching the world go by on 30-a.......now I am really starting to understand.

A great excuse for a midnight study break when you're a student at Tulane.

Yummmmm, Cafe du Monde. One of my best memories of growing up in New Orleans.

And their great chicory coffee to dip them in.

OK, Ok, OK, beignets. Beach Bimmer corrected me, too. I'm from Michigan, what would I know.

I like those bignets, too, at least the ones we find in Memphis....hehehehe, but the best are in NOLA at either Morning Call or Cafe du Monde and that coffee, cafe au lait, man, slap me happy thinking about it, drifting through the qawtah after beignets, a stroll by the rivuh, waiting for lunch somewhere ( probably Acme Oyster Bar fo 2 dozen and 2 Dixie beers) then Gallatoire's fo the evening.....it is fine.
