nykeiko travels and eats: Toups' Meatery [New Orleans]

What was left of our meal at Toup's meatery...nothing!

Oh yes, we did a whole lot of eating in New Orleans as you have seen here and here and I'm not done writing about it. Maybe I'll talk about stuff we saw or what we did for fun but FOOD was the main drive of our itinerary in N.O.L.A. so I won't deny it of a spotlight. Dinner on our second night in New Orleans was at Toups' meatery. You guessed right if you thought that there was a lot of meat consumed during the meal. The guys really loved this meal when I was hoping there would be some greens to pair. The food is mighty salty as mentioned before so we did order an additional side of white rice (not the dirty rice which was salty too!). The boys also loved the cornbread so much they ordered extras on the side to finish the meal strong. We were no doubt very full. Only good things to say about this meal and would highly recommend it even though it's a bit out of the way.

To start....

nykeiko travels and eats: District Donut [New Orleans]

When in New Orleans and in need of a java fix, stop by District Donut in the Garden district. Of course, if you have a little hunger to tend to, there is very tasty food to satisfy your needs.

When we dropped in, we were interested in trying out the donuts but then the sliders and savories menu caught our eye. And there was also an interesting section called 'Croquenuts' which are griddled donut sandwiches. Yes, sandwiches with donuts as the bun. It might sound weird at first but my cousin was the adventurous one and ordered the Dulce Cubano which turned out to be one of our favorite.

After all that eating, I don't really remember if the coffee is any good but I'm sure it wasn't bad!

Here is a glimpse at our first meal in the city. These are just starters! This is going to be a very dangerous (but good) eating trip!
