Julia's Magic Cottage is a gem -- immaculate, stylish, large, and perfectly situated in a beautiful neighborhood just off of Magazine Street, full of little boutiques, cafes, and all manner of restaurants. A huge Whole Foods is right around the corner and the indy bookstore Octavia Books is steps down the street. Toast, next to the bookstore, has the best breakfast ever. There are a number of noteworthy NOLA restaurants within walking distance -- both inexpensive and high-end. The neighborhood is as quiet as it is lovely, and parking is aplenty. Finally, Julia is friendly, helpful, and accessible. I look forward to returning.
