Gott Gourmet Cafe

Voted Best Breakfast

Saw they won Best Breakfast for 4 years, and I know why. Superb! Had the banana pancakes last weekend, very good. Tried the Seared Scallops Eggs Benedict that my friend got- unlike anything I've tried. Went back during the week for lunch, great menu. Definitely a regular stop for us now!

Shrimp and grits!

If you're in the South, you must try shrimp and grits, right? Now think about it with some andouille sausage added to it. Oh, and a little bit of heavy cream. Sinfully good and hearty. The best of New Orleans captured in one bowl. I would return again and again for this dish (after working out for two weeks solid!), along with several other options that Gott Gourmet offers. Gott offers plenty of really great healthy options (it is a "green" cafe, afterall) so this dish might be best ordered as an appetizer for the table to share. Then you can follow it up with a salad or something lighter to balance out the meal. This is a great option in the Garden District and draws a crowd on the weekends (be prepared to wait a little bit). The neighborhood is also charming, with lots of cute shopts. And Gotts features some great local art hanging from the walls. Get out of the quarter and stop here when you're touring the Garden District.
