Sometimes the best restaurants are located just off the beaten path, where you won’t find many tourists and the staff know the locals by name. When you’re looking for the best breakfast in New Orleans, Cake Cafe should be at the top of your list. Besides, where else can you get a cupcake with your breakfast for only a $1.00?

Nestled among the picture-perfect creole cottages that make up the Marigny neighborhood of New Orleans lies a fantastically delicious restaurant that only locals know about.
