New
Orleans Square French Market Café
If you are
looking for a place to get more than a hamburger, hot dog or turkey leg you
could do worse than the French Market Café in New Orleans Square. It was one of
the first places in the park you could get a reasonably priced non fast food
meal. You can even get a plate of fresh fruit if you wish.
Along with
the great Cajon inspired cooking you can also find a bit of entertainment.
There is a stage in the outside seating area that is home to a fantastic jazz
band. You can grab a bite to eat and sit a spell and tap your feet to the beat
of some great music as you feed yourself. If the restaurant is not open or not
busy you can always just sit down and enjoy the view.
While you
enjoy the music and food you can also immerse yourself in the atmosphere of New
Orleans. Sit and watch the people walk by. Listen to the different bands and
street performers that fill the area. Enjoy watching the ships, the Mark Twain
and the Sailing Ship Columba sail past. Hear the blast of the steam ships horn
and don't jump with the Columba fires off its canon.
This restaurant
holds a special place in my husband and my hearts. It was at the French Market
32 years ago that my husband and I started to fall in love. It was the band at
this restaurant that told us we were meant for each other. It is here we go to
celebrate our anniversary and our love.
