NOLA Beans


Like many goOd pEEps these days,
we do our best to invade and haunt
LoCaL!

How LoVeLy this place is.
The Staff RoCks!
The jAvA and foodies were just right for the Break of the Fast.

Located in Lakeview area,
the lucky ones get to walk there.
Like my Son.



The Chook Man even got a shirt......


If you were just in the neighborhood
or not,
give em a try.




Sucre' and damn good pastries










what a perfect rainy day treat!

Ruggles ~ so nice, went thereTwice!


I have a LoVe~LoVe relationship with 
Coffee shoppes and Bakeries.
It all started in downtown Istanbul
with miniature eclairs in a white box....
I also met The Chook Man in a Coffee Shoppe.

We found Ruggles during a GooGLe search.
In the 4 days we were in Houston,
we went there 3 times.

The Pastry counter was loaded with pastries
in sizes big enough to share at least
between two people.
I had the creme brulee and 
The Hubs had the White Chocolate Bread Pudding.
Both were delicious but the bread pudding 
was better. 

Twice I was given a complimentary 
chocolate covered spoon
and a ginger snap cookie.
Those were great for breakfast.





  We decided to have dinner there one night.

I just had a regular turkey sandwich with the sides
and The Hubs had the burger and fries.
He also got a bowl of the Black Bean soup 
and I'd have to say
that was the best part of the whole meal.






I did like the Lime in the ice tea instead of Lemon. 
I've never had it like that!











 and of course, we would finish up with more coffee.....

nomnomnom....good eats.
