Bring wet wipes for the kids, who will undoubtedly end up covered in powdered sugar when they try Cafe du Monde’s world-famous beignets. You’ll get three beignets with each order, so unless your family is very hungry (or very large), one order should be plenty. Be prepared to wait for your sugary balls of fried dough; for the better part of the day, the line at this iconic eatery with powdered sugar-covered floors is out the door. Cafe Du Monde’s coffee, flavored with chicory (a New Orleans tradition) and hot milk, is a popular choice for parents.
