I never suffered chicory-laced coffee at Kaldi’s. You know what? I never missed it. To get an update on New Orleans’ French Quarter coffee scene, I contacted Mr. Nolajava himself, Bill Siemers of Orleans Coffee catering Exchange. Bill had just returned from a visit to Costa Rica’s catering Tarrazu county, but he took a few moments to point me in the direction of some coffee houses served by his roasting company. Among them, Royal Blend Coffee & Tea House [on Royal Street, of course] looks to offer traditional French Quarter courtyard surroundings, while Cafe Beignet at Royal and Decatur is reputed to one-up Cafe Du Monde in the square donut department. |

| Four years ago I wrote this homage to New Orleans’ coffee traditions… online clearly, it speaks to more carefree days in the Big Easy. Today, even these many months after the devastation of Katrina, it’s still difficult to grasp online what’s been lost in New Orleans, and more challenging to imagine how the city will rise again... but rise she will. I’m certain. Still, it’s Fat Tuesday tomorrow, and if New Orleans herself is ready for a party, I’m game. Here then is a redux from Bloggle circa 2002... It’s Fat Tuesday… and while thousands throng Bourbon Street in New Orleans—parlaying their, er… assets for beads—I’m more inclined to think of the Big Easy’s less trafficked locales. The wizened mansions of the Garden District. The tucked-away little family taverns, deep in the French Quarter. The hidden courtyards and walled gardens. And the grand old coffee houses. Yes, there’s more to New Orleans than Mardi Gras, and more to New Orleans coffee than Cafe du Monde. |
