| Watching my shrimp creole crepe being made |
Street eateries are one of the many ways I am savoring the flavor of life this year. Boerne offers a wide variety of those during Festivals, Market Days, Parades, and other special events. A few of those vendors can be found around town all the time now though. Crepe Nations is one of our favorite street eateries that can be found at the plaza most days. Watching the crepes being made is fascinating. Eating the finished product is a culinary delight. The shrimp creole crepe I got today was make your eyes water, clear your sinuses good. The banana Foster crepe I got for dessert was a delightful dessert after that hot and spicy savory crepe.
I also saw Fat Bellies at the plaza recently as well, so if they are going to hang out there we will be trying to good Cajun cooking soon. There is all a Skinny Cat Catering down near Cibolo creek I will try when they finish the new sidewalk by the creek they are building. Have I mentioned Boerne REALLY loves their sidewalks?
I wonder if the people so often seen strolling up and down those sidewalks has anything to do with some of the street eateries hanging out in Boerne full time? I just know the only time I saw anything close to a street eatery in west Texas was if I went to a fair, carnival or circus. Now that I’m living here in the hill country, I’ve become such an avid fan of them, I downloaded the Eat St. app for my iPhone so I can keep up with my favorite street eateries.
If you had told me a year ago I would be downloading an app for my iPhone to keep up with street eateries on, I would have told you to seek psychiatric help. Heck, a year ago I was fighting the idea of even getting an iPhone! And look at me now.
