'Twas a French Friday

corner of Taft and Westheimer in front of Mangos

I continued with the Food and Coffee-re-exploring-Houston-tour.

If this place were not at a stop light you would pass this gem up. I was greeted with a smile by Sean, the lovely man who owns this creperie. He was very charming and talkative. It was NICE. I live when people interact, and try to make you feel good about visiting your venue. Top of the line customer service, along with an amazing crepe.
Mayra had the Strawberries and vanilla bean whipped cream. He added a bit more after Mayra had taken a few bites.
Shani had the egg, cheese, and ham. Pretty basic...I wouldn't have ordered it, but she enjoyed it.


As you can see in this picture here.
I had the banana and Nutella. DUHHH this was gonna be a winner! It has nutella! Delicious, amazing, fantastic, and everything else good!

I WISH there was one right outside my house cause I could possibly eat one every other hour. Who am I kidding...every 30 minutes lol.

Later, I went with my aunt to La Madeleine. I had my usual Cesar salad, potato salad and half a sandwich.

Its ok to be itty bitty

The Itty Bitty Burger Barn
5503 PINEMONT DRIVE
HOUSTON, TX 77092



This was my first stop on my Food and Coffee-re-exploring-Houston-tour since it was the closest to my house - 10 minutes. They had a large array of burger choices with a big sign with dudes handwriting, and funny little pictures. I opted for the Western Burger (burger topped with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, bbq sauce, and an onion ring) since Rob got the Black Blue Burger with Blue Cheese, and I refused to copy!


His was absolutely delicious. There he is eating my leftover tots - which were fucking good - with Jalapeno ketchup. He said it wasn't spicy it was just the jalapeno aroma. Well, I didn't get my food at the same time Mayra and Rob did cause well...the poor teenage waiter/cashier dropped it on the floor. He looked so embarrassed. I felt bad for him, and the cook gave him the STANK eye. Awww poor baby :(


I didn't really care that he had dropped it on the floor it was whatever, but he offered a free milkshake. I didn't really wanna take it, but whatever...Mayra was like "OK!" We tasted it and it had a distinct taste. I tried to figure it out for a second, but then gave up. lol Rob then said it tasted like Quick and yup! that was the taste.


Mayra had a steak sandwich which was good too, all in all I liked it. I would absolutely go there again.
