As we head south down Gravier St, we walk by the usual establishments, Two Chicks Cafe, Bread & Butter Cafe. We cross Carondelet and St. Charles Ave, then hang a left on Camp. 
We are on our way to a much-anticipated second visit to Cafe Fleur-de-lis for breakfast.
After a bit more walking, the iconic Canal Street comes into view, with its red trolley cars, and palm trees lining the center. Camp now changes names to Chartres; we’ve now entered the historic French Quarter. Lots of the streets here have decorative wall tiles denoting the street name when this was a Spanish province from 1763 to 1803. Example: Royal Street (Rue Royal) was Calle Real. Chartres was Calle D’Chartres.
Let’s just say that Cafe Fleur-de-lis has some great omelets, boudin, and creamy grits that’ll make you sit up and expound on their deliciousness :). This cafe is on the corner of Chartres and Bienville Streets.

On the opposite corner is Crescent City Books, a delightful little bookstore that along with new and used books also has vintage maps and rare books. (yours truly is a fan)
