We all know how important it is to stay fed and hydrated during parade season, but finding a place to grab a quick bite without missing any of the parades can sometimes be difficult. There are hundreds of restaurants, cafés, and grocery stores along the parade route, and many offer special deals and bathroom access for the duration of Mardi Gras.
