Please help plan our month in heaven

Hi NO Foodies,
Our 16-year old daughter is doing a semester away, so we're treating ourselves to a full month in NO. We'll be staying at the southern end of the FC one week, the top of the FC one week, and in the warehouse district another week--and will have small kitchens. We won't have a car, but love a hike--especially into the Garden District. We love all food--any nationality.

We already have a long list of best nice restaurants in town. Please help me by filling in with:

1. Places we can buy things we can snack on or take home to eat: baked goods, candy, ice cream, snacks, meats, sausages, cheeses, breads, fresh produce, prepared foods, ingredients to cook. Please tell me both the name of the establishment and what you recommend we eat/buy there.

2. We are planning a brief trip up along the river road, then across to Avery Island. Any suggestions on what to stop for and where to eat along the way are appreciated.

3. Any casual, inexpensive places along Magazine St. or elsewhere that we can hike to for lunch.

Thank you in advance for your help.
