Café Adelaide is All about Eating & Drinking Creole Style
Some of the best restaurants are located in New Orlean’s best hotels. The Loews Hotel is the home of Café Adelaide, part of the Commander’s Palace Family of Restaurants. This is a great place if you are looking for some great Creole cuisine with impeccable food and service. The best part is that you don’t need to be a guest at the hotel to enjoy all of this.
While the dishes are a bit more on the pricey side, no one can complain that it isn’t plentiful and tasty. Going for breakfast is a wonderful way to wake up in the morning. I am always in favor for the New Orleans Power Breakfast that is served with a little bit of everything under the sun. If that doesn’t suit your fancy then definitely try the Custom Three Cheese Omelet.
Dinner is just as memorable. Anyone up for some Turtle Soup? It’s a New Orleans classic. The Crab Cakes are absolutely divine and a must if you ever visit this place. They are exquisite and definitely to die for. I was surprised how much I really enjoyed Shrimp on Shrimp Grits. The seafood at this place is extremely fresh and made to perfection. Anything to you order on the menu is a winner.
As stated before this is a pricey place to dine. It’s really good to come here for special occasions or if you are in the mood for some classy dining. I would eat here every day if I could. I love what is offered at Café Adelaide as it brings sophisticated flavors to the forefront of dining.
