The Mardi Gras King Cake Tradition, Explained | Eater

"A commercial New Orleans bakery credited with popularizing the modern practice of including a small figurine in king cakes during the 1950s; the shops originally used porcelain babies but later switched to plastic for practicality, and today the tiny figurine is often sold separately and hidden by the purchaser rather than being baked into the cake for safety reasons. This innovation helped cement the baby trinket as a central Mardi Gras and Epiphany ritual tied to luck and the obligation to host future celebrations." - Dana Hatic

The History & Evolution of the Mardi Gras King Cake - AFAR

"A now-defunct pastry shop widely credited with igniting the mid-20th-century king-cake craze by introducing signature dough flavors such as cinnamon and praline and by pioneering the use of novelty fèves—first frozen Charlottes, then bisque babies and later plastic figurines—helping shape many modern king-cake traditions." - Robin Catalano

Hmm. Mixed bag. Edgy place. Exorbitant prices on their products, but cheap realfasts ($4.99), you won't eat for the rest of the day, and lunches ($6.99). They record every one. No funny stuff.

Located deep within the Hollygrove neighborhood here stands a corner store. This seems to be a fairly popular spot. This little convenience store has the basics that you might need like junk food, cigarettes, and whiskey. Also a few assorted other items as well. I will admit that they are pricey on their merchandise as well. But given the fact that it is a convenience store should speak for itself. I will warn everyone on here in advance that this place is in a really bad neighborhood! With that said I think this place is important because it is good for people who lack transportation or elderly people who live in the neighborhood. In short its an alright place if you lack transportation and can't go anywhere farther.

Their ham and cheese po boy is excellent. I am not able to eat fried foods so I can't comment on anything other than the ham and cheese.
