"Pastry chef Cara Benson swore off gluten three years ago, making all her own baked goods gluten-free at home. The health benefits for her were immediate, she says. Benson, who owns Tartine and Toast, opened Hen House Café and Bakery in Gretna to offer customers a wide variety of gluten-free bread and baked goods alongside breakfast and lunch dishes, all in a sweet, homespun setting. FYI: She closes January 1 through Mardi Gras day to use the space for king cake production, then cleans/decontaminates and reopens for business." - Beth D'Addono, Eater Staff
