Make a reservation (well in advance of your trip to New Orleans) at The Court of Two Sisters for its popular Jazz Brunch, hosted 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. Patrons enjoy lush, lovely courtyard seating and an extensive buffet, with more than 80 items featured. Options include everything from omelettes to jambalaya. Don’t miss the Bananas Foster!

While there isn’t an a la carte brunch menu for kids, they will surely find something they like at the buffet.

Dinner is also served 5:30 to 10 p.m. daily at this award-winning restaurant in the French Quarter.
