Emergency!

Okay, this is for anyone who lives in Austin. Wait, if you don't live in Austin, you should visit IMMEDIATELY.

I have found the best food in the universe. You think I'm exaggerating, don't you? Well, you're wrong. It is called Flip Happy. It is two women selling crepes out of an airstream trailer on South Lamar behind the Floribunda store (Don't Panic, It's Organic!). The woman running the place only takes cash. She says she'll take a personal check if it's your first visit. For $5.50, I got a huge, homeade crepe with roasted chicken, carmelized onions, and goat cheese. Words do not exist to describe the taste. Four of us got the same thing, and a collective moan was heard throughout the building as we took our first bites. I'm telling you, I've been to Paris and eaten crepes there. These are better.

People, get in on this before it gets big. This can't stay a secret for long (especially with me blabbing to anyone who will listen). Right now, they are only open from 11-2:30 on weekdays and 5-9:30 on Friday nights. So plan your trip carefully. If you leave now, you might still make it for lunch.

Five dessert crepes are downstairs in the catering kitchen right now waiting for my birthday celebration. Updates are coming.

OK isn't that far away. Next time you guys need a vacation, come visit and we will gorge ourselves on crepes.

Hm. How long until the place gets overrun by pseudo-hipsters in $60,000 cars, and the owner's heads swell up to the size of melons, along with the prices and the waiting list?
