Slurping wetly and noisily at the nourishment that is New Orleans
Even for many aficionados, a piping hot cup of coffee on a sweltering summer day in New Orleans is about as appealing as running a 10k in a goose down parka. Though many folks can be found sheltering inside well air-conditioned spaces where a steaming cuppa Joe can be had […]
Baton Rouge-based Community Coffee just released a new flavor in time for St. Patrick’s Day, Irish Creme. Thanks to my food-writing, fringe benefits, they offered to send me an 11 oz. bag of their St. Paddy’s Day flavor gratis. My coffee package arrived just the other day and to my […]
I love coffee. When I was a kid, I’d steal the coffee-flavored candies from my mother’s purse (coffee and toffee are her two favorite flavors), take sips off of cold coffee cups left on the kitchen counter for clean-up, and devour coffee ice cream. As an adult, my passion for […]
“I like coffee exceedingly.” -H.P. Lovecraft We’re all familiar with that gnawing feeling that sneaks up on us mid-morning (or even mid-afternoon).

Ever since I had this thick, rich brew at the Green Goddess, I’ve been meaning to go out and buy several pounds of Union Coffee & Chicory, but I haven’t seen it in the grocery store. Do I have to buy this stuff online?
Regardless of my work schedule or what I do on the weekend, I always need an extra, afternoon dose of coffee on Mondays. If I could magic myself there in an instant, today I would choose this gorgeous cappuccino I slurped down several months ago at Domenica… . . . […]
I have this crazy obsession, this overwhelming compunction and it’s starting to worry me. All of my friends know about it, they’ve heard me mention it hundreds of times and I’ve even blabbered about it to my family back in California. When the levees failed, I searched everywhere for it […]
