New Orleans Travel Guide
By Jane Ko @atasteofkoko
WILLA JEAN
Frosé and avocado toast at Willa Jean is the best way to start the day and you can even get the frosé to-go! I would be here every week if I lived in New Orleans. Willa Jean is just around the corner from Hilton Garden Inn so we stopped by for frosé to-go before exploring the city on foot.

SALON BY SUCRE
Located in the heart of the French Quarter, Salon By Sucre is the best spot for afternoon teatime in their casual, French mid-century modern dining room. Be sure to order the macarons, petit fours, eclairs, and assorted chocolates. The patio seating has an incredible view of the French Quarter.

CAFE DU MONDE
A mandatory stop when you visit NOLA, Cafe du Monde is a must for beignets and chicory coffee.
Location: 800 Decatur St, New Orleans, LA 70116, cafedumonde.com
COURT OF TWO SISTERS
Brunch is served every single day at Court of Two Sisters with live jazz in the courtyard. You know you’re in NOLA when there’s crawfish and king cake for brunch! Court of Two Sisters is a great spot to try all of the iconic dishes of New Orleans for $29: turtle soup, creole jambalaya, veal grillades and gravy, shrimp etouffee, and bananas foster.
