Question

I'm at the intercontinental in New Orleans. Where can I walk and eat a good breakfast?

Answer 1

It's another hotel, but the Le Pavillion (833 Poydras Street - a block from the Intercontinental) has a wonderful breakfast buffet (+ breakfast to order if you don't like buffets).

Answer 2

The Intercontinental is on St Charles, right?

Hmm... trying to picture in my head what you'd be close to but nothing comes to mind...sorry.

Answer 3

OOOH....you must go have a yummy greasy spoon of a breakfast at "Mothers", it's on Poydras.  There is often a line, get a menu, order from the grill ladies then pay and then sit down (don't sit down or have anyone in your party sit down before you order, they're very particular here about the process)...but the food is sooo good.  They're famous for their Po-boys...but the breakfast is great too.  Get a bloody mary too if you drink...very tasty here.  If you're looking for something more upscale, go to "Mr. B's" on Royal, they have a fabulous jazz brunch on the weekends.
