Review is just on the beignets! Just a FYI!
So i returned home from New Orleans on a beignets kick thanks to the greatest, Cafe Du Monde.
Been searching around Phx for some good ones and stumbled upon here the other night. First round of them - they tasted exactly like a fryer, like fryer grease. And don't worry smart-alecs, I know they are fried but the ones in New Orleans and every where else I've gotten them, did not have a nasty after taste. Presentation was beautiful though!
Last night, I was convinced that we must have just had a bad batch and let's try them again. With being .5 miles away, i wanted to like this place. Again, same problem - they basically taste like a fried piece of chicken with the first couple seconds when you bite into them. Plus, they shouldnt crunch or make a crunch sound.
