The Bleu Café
Came out of the blue
Conjured up by two sisters.
What else could they do?
But start the restaurant they had in mind
At 240 E. Winnie Lane
Oh, what a find!
Roberta, or “Bert,”
And Karey, or “B,”
Are wonderful nicknames,
They go by these.
They’ve traveled Europe
And a country mile.
Their restaurant cuisine
Reflects a continental style.
From traditional to eclectic
Beignets and a southern flair
You will have quite a variety
When you eat there.
They’re open now for breakfast and lunch
With an expansion for dinner
That is my hunch.
Come in check it out
As a foodie, I have no doubt
Your palate will take the test.
It’s great food at it’s best.
P.S. Their bread pudding is the best around.
They won first place at the Taste of Downtown
