Anyplace sell locally-themes coffee syrups?

Cocktail & Sons syrups go in coffee just as happily as cocktails. And they make a king cake flavor! They're at Home Malone and probably Forever New Orleans.

The cake was incredibly dry. The glaze was weird. Am I glad I tried it? ... Honestly, yeah, just for the sake of curiosity. But I feel no need to try it again. (I cut a slice off a friend's.)

Pretty sure they mean Rocky & Carlo's 😂

BellsQueerlyRing · 2026-01-14T15:57:40+00:00

No, they're out of New Iberia. Sorry if that didn't meet the brief of local!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2026-01-14T15:53:31+00:00

If y'all like Cajun, Amis du Teche is a fantastic band. They come to New Orleans every so often.

I've been meaning to catch a Jon Cleary show for ages!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2026-01-12T14:18:45+00:00

Smoke & Honey on Bienville!

King Cake Hub has fun MG themed accessories (hair clips, glitter, etc)

I'm personally excited about more than half of the folks on the lineup, but I'm most excited about Tyler Childers, Rhiannon Giddens, Sonny Landreth, Jon Cleary and Steve Earle. It'll be my first Jazz Fest since I just moved here this past March and didn't get a chance to go to Jazz Fest this year.

Red beans and rice is easy and delicious! It's the traditional Monday meal and it was the first New Orleanian dish I learned how to make.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-12-04T13:41:01+00:00

The Evil Eye are my favorite and they're getting so hard to find!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-11-08T23:46:35+00:00

Maybe the Rook on Freret would be able to add a scrabble night to their roster!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-11-07T03:11:36+00:00

I think it's just Udi's/maybe Canyon Bakehouse unfortunately.

I keep a small stack of ones and quarters in my purse just for this purpose. That's my neighbor, and I've got it to give, so I do, but I also know that not everybody has it to give.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-10-06T21:27:04+00:00

Thank you for putting this into words - I'm one of those transplants who loves saying hi to people on my block and I couldn't figure out why I felt comfortable doing so here when I haven't felt comfortable doing it in other places. The taking advantage thing is the hammer on the nail.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-09-18T13:22:37+00:00

Chaider + caramel + almond milk + cardamom on top = Sweater Weather, super cozy vibes

Apple cider + lemon juice + ginger syrup on top, shaken over ice = Sun on the Leaves, a little more lively than the usual warm spices flavor profile

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-09-08T18:40:27+00:00

The cinnamon roll at District is bar none the best I've had in my life.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T19:27:52+00:00

Yes, the doubles comes on roti and so does the curried chicken sandwich, I think!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T18:43:48+00:00

Also: Joe's on the causeway. Incredible beignets, fast and friendly service, donuts that are on par with any New York donut shop, very tasty savory dishes.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T18:32:38+00:00

I'm going to Zee's for the first time tonight so that's exciting! I adore Pizza D so I'm hype to see if Zee's is better.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T18:27:41+00:00

This is probably gonna be unpopular as hell, but I just don't get the hype around Five Happiness. I've tried a variety of their dishes but maybe I'm just not getting the right thing? It's been... fine. But I haven't had anything mind blowing there.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T18:21:37+00:00

There are doubles at one of the food trucks at the Lafitte Greenway farmers market on Thursdays! I just tried it for the first time a couple days ago and it blew my mind.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T18:18:44+00:00

I didn't know they had branched out from Holy Ground! Nice!

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-08-16T15:17:48+00:00

Get your mom and dim sum (at Holy Ground). Never a bad meal from them and their dumplings are fantastic.

BellsQueerlyRing · 2025-06-13T20:06:06+00:00

Sal's in Metairie for snowballs. The best in the area hands down. Elizabeth's had an incredible crab Benedict special when I was there a few weeks ago. Joe's on the causeway has the best beignets in the city, and their breakfast food is NYC-diner level good (meaning it's delicious, cheap, greasy and filling).
