Breakfast at the Ruby Slipper

The Ruby Slipper is a great place for breakfast in New Orleans. Originally starting from a location on Cortez Street in Mid-City, the restaurant has now expanded to include locations in the Central Business District and in the Bywater neighborhood. Visit them when in New Orleans for great breakfasts and lunches. Menu, addresses and hours can be found at http://www.therubyslippercafe.net/.

Praline Bacon? Yes, indeed!

Elizabeth’s Restaurant in the Bywater neighborhood of New OrleansĀ is an amazing breakfast spot in a quiet neighborhood some distance from the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter and Marigny. They serve more than breakfast of course, but they’re justifiably famous for their praline bacon. Visit them at http://www.elizabethsrestaurantnola.com/Ā and plan on giving them a visit when you’re in New Orleans.

Decatur GA

Early Saturday morning I drove to Decatur, Georgia to have breakfast at Sweet Melissa’s on the square (worth the drive). Afterwards, I took a stroll around the square, shooting some photos, 11/24/12

Another Broken Egg in Atlanta

Atlanta now has Another Broken Egg Cafe, which started in Mandeville, Louisiana near New Orleans, and is undoubtedly familiar to anyone who has been to Destin. There are now locations in Dallas, Shreveport, Baton Rouge and many other places in the south, and the food is always great.
