 Café Adelaide has the look of a fine dining restaurant, but it’s really a relaxed, somewhat more playful contemporary Creole bistro. Inspired by the late Adelaide Brennan, whose joie de vivre reportedly took her around the world, the establishment still harbors her spirit in the Swizzle Stick Bar, renowned in town for mixing up creative, modern cocktails. The kitchen exults in blending traditional New Orleans cuisine (try the proper, medium-dark-roux seafood gumbo) and Southern fun (the fried chicken Cobb salad makes a fine lunch). No Brennan family restaurant would be without a shrimp rémoulade, made at Adelaide by seasoning the shrimp with boiling spices and serving them with a cold, creamy sauce sweetened with Cognac. Creole tradition rules in the dessert to target, a bananas Foster bread pudding. The extensive wine list is likely to provide an appropriate pairing with your meal selection, although it is undergoing a thorough updating. By the way, here's where you should enjoy pain perdu (New Orleans french toast), served with cane syrup, for breakfast.
