Kitchen Witch Cook Books

Even though the witching month is over, cooking months are here! On that note, I thought I'd share about a neat cookbook store I found on one of my adventures in New Orleans. I give you: Kitchen Witch! It's a neat space chock full of all manner of cookbooks and books about food.

As a bonus, the atmosphere and proprietors are great! Warm, cozy, fragrant, and complete with two adorable sleeping dogs nestled among the tables and shelves. That's my kind of store!


I loved this display set on an old oven. Cute!

I left with a stack of books and a bottle of Kitchen Witch seasoning. Yum! I bought Maple Syrup recipes, an old San Francisco ladies group cookbook, an International Pantry book, and some cookbook gifts for family. Co-founder Debbie Lindsey also shared with me that a vegan Cajun cookbook is usually in stock (they were out the day I visited), so if you're around and interested, check it out.

Debbie & Philipe also ship so give them a call at (504) 528-8382 or email at mailto:%20kwitchen1@aol.com if you’re looking for something special.

Oh my god! I totally saw this place when I was in NO last fall. I was there with my parents, and my mom and I adore cookbooks (she has like 2,000 in her collection...not vegan of course).

We walked past this place when we were on our way somewhere else. We didn't have to stop in, but made plans to do so later. And then, silly us, we couldn't remember where we saw it.

We're going back next year, so I will write the addy down. Thanks!

ohhhhh. i haven't been to this place since it moved from north rampart after katrina. it used to be sorta mildewy and dank, but your pics make it look nice. do you know what the vegan cajun book they stock is called?? the only one i've ever heard of is Vegetarian Cooking in Cajun Country, it pretty much blows.

Thanks to you two for you hilarious brain posts just now.
