the other day i mentioned my all time fav summertime treat, hansen's sno-blitz. don't forget to go and check out that link and then go get yourself a tasty treat. i also mentioned creole creamery. if it's ice cream you're in the mood for then that's the place to go (but who could ever turn down a sno-blitz?!? not i, i tell you!).
here is another new orleans traditions that you should check out.
these roman candy guys have been selling their taffy wonders out of these horse drawn carriages for as long as i can remember (if i'm not mistaken they've been doing it since the early 20th century). they have chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. they're super cheap and super good. you can always find them hanging out on the side of the road in these fab carts (and don't worry, the horses are well taken care of...i watched the guy give the horse water and some food-- not sure what the food was but he seemed to like it).
you can also visit their website at http://www.romancandy.com/
the candy man can
buy some roman candy! support a new orleans tradition!
