Holy Crepes!

Last weekend I met Kitt for a very unique brunch... it was very "Austin". Those of you that have been to Austin understand what I mean. The word "Austin" isn't just the proper name of our city... it is a way of life, a feeling and an uniqueness. With that being said, I introduce you to Flip Happy Crepes!




I realize it doesn't look like much. After all, it is just an Airstream trailer parked in a random South Austin lot and surrounded by picnic tables. However, what makes this special is the yummy goodness being created inside the trailer... crepes of every kind! Kitt and I shared a Three Cheese Crepe and a Pesto Chicken Crepe. While we enjoyed them both, the Pesto was by far the most interesting. Yum!



And, you can't have crepes without having a dessert! So, we split a Cinnamon Sugar Crepe with Cream Cheese Filling. To.Die.For.



There isn't a whole lot of ambiance other than some piped in French Jazz music. So, this allowed us time to chat and catch up on life. The biggest drawback to Flip Happy is the outdoor seating. Of course, the day we chose to meet it was SO cold!! We bundled up and joined the die-hards to enjoy our goodies. Those of you that know Kitt, know that she is cold just about all the time. It could be 100 degrees outside and she is inside freezing. She humored me by braving the frigid temperatures and I thank her for it!!!



As Kitt said, repeatedly, this would be a great place in the Spring. So, we have made a mental note to return again. In the Spring. Kitt- I heard you... In THE SPRING.


(By the way, Shaunna was supposed to join us too! Her little man didn't cooperate with sleep the night before, so she had to cancel. We miss you Shaunna! I will take a rain-check anytime for more crepes! Kitt probably will too... but she will wait until THE SPRING.)
