Coffee Festival

At the other end of Jenna Street there were some booths each featuring coffee brands. They were participating in a Coffee Festival. A blurb about it was included on a market sign I spotted on Napoleon Avenue. Before leaving, I circled back around the market to catch a few more of the tents.

At one end of Jenna Street was a band. Both sides of the street had tents.

Wandering Around the Market

Making my way around a fence, I soon realized how much bigger the market was. I continued my journey to Jenna Street. Another leg of the market took up one block of that street.

The Freret Market

On the afternoon of October 3rd, I explored the Freret Market. According to some friends I talked to, this one was bigger than usual because it marked the anniversary of the market. The market was not limited to arts and crafts. There were plenty of other booths in the market.

Aunt Leni's Cafe and Market

Aunt Leni’s Café and Market is a neighborhood spot at 323 Verret Street, right next to Confetti Park in Old Algiers Point. Similar to other local eating establishments, this one grew out of a family’s involvement in the restaurant business, which is detailed in our family on the restaurant’s site. The menu includes items that span breakfast, lunch and dinner. There’s plenty for kids and adults to enjoy. Folks from the area can make themselves at home in a casual relaxed atmosphere as they dine or just sip wine or coffee. In addition to the café aspect of the place, there is a market area that includes produce, dairy, sauces and soups. Here are some photos to give you a feel for Aunt Leni’s.
