The Best Beignets in Atlanta | Eater Atlanta

"Owned by chef Jamie Adams and Leonardo Moura, Lagarde American Eatery blends Southern, Cajun, and classic New Orleans dishes together on the menu. Both locations in Chamblee and Milton feature dishes like shrimp etouffee, red beans and rice, po’ boys, gumbo, and jambalaya. Dinner isn’t complete, however, without fried doughnut beignets sprinkled in powdered sugar with a bourbon glaze. Lagarde is Adams’s middle name, and many of the dishes on the menu are based on his childhood and family trips to New Orleans where his parents grew up." - Beth McKibben
