Mardi Gras

If you can't make it down to Bourbon Street on Tuesday, I guarantee that one bite of Aunt Sally's Pralines will transport you to New Orleans. You can pick up these scrumptious pecan delights at Martha Frances Mississippi Cheesecake (1707 2nd Ave., 212-360-0900). While you munch, you can learn about Fat Tuesday traditions at the official Mardi Gras Website!
