Post parade at cafe de monde, originally eaten by Ted Drake

The Beignets at Cafe du Monde in New Orleans are ridiculously tasty. I couldn’t believe how many times we ate there and I’m still thinking about these sugar covered lovelies.

As the intro says, my job and my natural lust for travel take me to may places and I find myself in all kinds of restaurants eating all kinds of things.  There is usually that lag time between ordering and the food arriving.  I get bored.  When I am bored I reach for the nearest camera and  start shooting whatever is around me, which is usually the table, the ketchup bottles, the coffee cup, the crumpled napkin.  Then the food comes, I wolf it down, and there is the lag time between finishing and the arrival of the bill.  Again with the camera, the ravished dish, the flatware, the crumpled napkin.

Welcome to a little corner of my world.

Durward

Ted and Durward are two friends on different continents with one thing in common. They eat at too many restaurants by themselves with nothing better to do than photograph the food with their phone cameras and torment other people with the photos.

It started with Ted teasing his friend Heidi, who moved away from Southern California and could no longer get good mexican food. He shot every bowl of chips, salsa bar, and burrito to rub salt into her wounds.

Ted lives in Paris and travels regularly to London and California. Durward lives in New Orleans and travels regularly to Virginia and North Carolina areas. This site will contain far to many pizza, cheese sandwiches, po boys, and other repetitive, boring food photos.

enjoy…
