Cafe Du Monde is as vintage as New Orleans gets—they've been serving coffee and beignets in the same location on Jackson Square since 1862. And while it’s one of the most touristy spots in the city, standing in the long, unorganized line is worth it. The beignets are always hot, generously caked in powdered sugar, and make for the most satisfying snack in between all your other eating plans. Grab a table if you find one, and accept the fact that you’re going to show up in the background of someone else’s vacation photos.
