The Bilstad's live over in P-ville near my middle son. That's where we heard of Bilstad's Beignets. They had a food truck and we would get some once in a while. Yum is an understatement

Recently, they opened a store in old Ashburn.

Debbie and I have stopped in there for beignets and coffee (which is locally roasted and OUTSTANDING) a few times!

Last week I stopped in there because they advertised a Roasted Turkey Cuban. So I tried it and it was GREAT! Mrs. Bilstad's grandpa is Cuban so she's making a variation of the sammie. Some Cubans would roll over in their grave hearing a "roasted turkey Cuban" but they nailed this one.

Cool place to visit!

They have good beignets! I went shortly after they first opened so they didn't have much if any food options. I'd be down to try that turkey Cuban though! Thanks for posting this.

That roasted turkey Cuban is a once in a while deal. I follow the on FB. That’s where you get the alerts.

The one thing I don't like about living rural is that all the best places to eat are far away. I'll add this to the long list of eateries I want to visit.

Update- I had the Gochujang Pork Shoulder grits today. Simply amazing! A couple of weeks back, I had the Gumbo'd Shrimp grits. Also amazing!

Their sammies are top notch as well.

This is becoming a 3-4 times a month place!
