Oh my goodness....it's impossible for me to narrow it down so I'm eating a lot! I'm so in awe of food I've had in the states, I can't imagine how I'll be if I ever travel abroad! Now, fortunately in this scenario it's "my last day" so no worries of hangovers, indigestion, etc!
So what would be your last meal(s)?
High hopes and best wishes to you all! Bon Appetit!

beignets from Cafe Du Monde
ReplyDeleteYUMM. I had them right before NO was devastated by Katrina. I am thankful I got to visit the city before it was changed forever.
We have very similar tastebuds...is that cab expensive?
