Stories By People Who diddit

Cafe du Monde always reminds me of friends and late nights from the list Eating Near The French Quarter

Cafe du Monde always reminds me of friends and late nights. I live in New Orleans so I don't go that often anymore but it possibly the best late night spot that anyone has ever created. I remember the best time I had was when I went with one of my professors and friends. I haven't had a good moment like that since then but Cafe du Monde is the perfect backdrop to a special moment.
