Merchant is a very cool modern space in the Central Business District of New Orleans. I was a huge fan of the red accents and mix of rustic wood pieces with sleek white chairs.
We kinda took over this communal table with all our bags and food. I regretted not getting a sweet crepe - I went with a savory pancetta and think I would have preferred good ol' nutella and fruit. Illy coffee is obviously no Stumptown or Blue Bottle but as snob as I am about coffee, I will enjoy whatever is available to me.
i'm not sure if i would fit in as a non-coffee drinker, but i would definitely enjoy the sweet nutella crepe. the table is great. how can something simple be that perfect?!
ReplyDeleteStumptown and Intelligentsia are *obviously* the best, but in most cases, some coffee is better than no coffee.
ReplyDeleteLove that first shot...what a cool table!

ReplyDeleteWow, take me there! So many gorgeous details. Lovely work...
ReplyDeletenutella + fruit are the ingredients of my go-to sweet crepe, too! haha. i think nutella is universally liked. i have yet to meet someone who doesn't like nutella.
ReplyDeletegreat shots! that communal table looks so cool.
Could be worse- you could be looking for fresh grinds in Hawaii.
