That smell as you're walking toward the cafe and then that plate of pillowy beignets smothered in powdered sugar—it’s a good thing there are no beignets where I live because they’re just too hard to resist. I know there are beignet mixes, but I’m pretending that those would not be as good as the ones made in the Cafe.
