This place is ok but I’ve had better. Also the service was poo. The only saving grace was the quality of the crepes for such a low price

AMAZING Crêpes and Panini’s… the trailer is not there anymore but the same owner has now opened Chez Moi Bistro on Lavaca between 14th and 15th. It’s located where Lavaca Stree Deli used to be.

The crepes are excellent and the Panini’s are some of the best I have ever had. The bread for the Paninis is lite flaky, slightly sweet and absolutely delicious. They are made to order on site and the staff is outstanding. Three French ladies doing their thing in what has become an Austin explosion, out of a trailor across the street from South congress Café, I will be going back,

I’m walking down congress ave on a hot spring day after just getting a tastey smoothy at Amy’s ice-cream and a month’s worth of cat food from Rivers & Reefs when I pass by the dusty gravel food stand area. Oh look, a Crêpe place sprouted up! It is spring, and the food stands are beginning to bloom on SoCo. I wander past the cone stand, the Roppolo’s pizza stand(why would I ever eat there when Homeslice and South Side Flying are so close?) and some other stand and walk up. Its her 4th day being open. I decide to give it a try. The options are not as exciting as Flip Happy’s or Café Crêpe’s menu. I order something with Gruyère and Béchamel sauce, sit down in the sun until it is ready. To my disappointment, the crêpe is a bit overcooked with a deep-brown color. It looks and tastes like a pancake. The first few bites were good, but then it just got really boring. The flavor had no depth to it. If the already bleak county-fair atmosphere couldn’t get any worse, the noisy generator kicked in to overdrive as Chic Crêpe turned on the stereo to play some French music over a single, distorting and underpowered computer speaker pointed right at my table. Enough. I didn’t pay $ 7 for a Crêpe to sit in a dusty parking lot, listen to horribly reproduced music over the loud droning of a generator kindly reminding me that supporting this park is doing its own slow part in killing the environment. Maybe they’ll get better, maybe the prices will go down, the generator will disappear, the speaker system will get upgraded(or shut off), and it will be enjoyable. Until then, if I need a crêpe, I’m going to Café Crêpe where I can sit at a nice sidewalk café, watch people walk down the quiet city street and feel like, just maybe, I was in France.
