A trip to New Orleans isn't complete with a stop at Café du Monde for beignets

In New Orleans, many people grow up eating beignets. And if they aren't enjoying them at home, they're likely heading to Café du Monde in the French Quarter for a fresh plate served hot from the fryer. The café is the indisputable source of NOLA's most famous beignets, which, after more than a century, remain the only food item you can order off the menu.
