Hearty Boys catering advertises New Orleans style chicory coffee and beignettes on Sunday mornings. I was very excited to go there, especially because the beignette mix and the coffee both come from Cafe Du Monde, in the French quarter- A place that I absolutely love. The cook was so excited that someone ordered this treat that he wound up under-cooking it and spilling most of the powdered sugar on himself. After seeing our frowning faces, he graciously brought out another plate of fully cooked powdered donuts. But they were nothing like what I've had in New Orleans. Still inspired by the hype that surrounds this place, I forced myself to go back and try something else. I tried 4 breakfast dishes and a quiche. All were for the most part flavorless. I will say though, that I like the way they seem to decorate with utensils, this is kinda worth seeing. I won't go back and I'm pretty disappointed in the place.
