My favorite breakfast spot (lunch is good too). Everything is made from scratch, everything. Best king cake in the city (apple & goat cheese). You can get a delicous homemade cupcake for $1 with your breakfast. GO HERE!! Gets busy on weekends so be ready to wait.. but the line moves fast, they have this down to a fine art.
