Breakfast Can Be Sweet or Savory at Crepe Crazy

January 6, 2016 1:00 pm

Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Prosciutto and apricot jam. Nutella and bananas. These are just a few of the ingredient combos that come stuffed inside of light, airy crepes at Crepe Crazy. Even though it only opened in December about a mile from Lamar Union, one of many unique eateries keeping Austin weird, local customers have already taken notice of Crepe Crazy—and expressed their adoration on Yelp.

If you're in the market for a savory crepe, try the Mediterranean Medley. The crepe comes smothered with sun-dried tomato pesto and hummus, sprinkled with feta cheese and red onion, and stuffed with fire-roasted red bell peppers, cucumbers, and spinach (plus grilled chicken, if you want). For something on the more sugary side, opt for the Sweet Cream Delight. It features house-made sweet cheese paired with strawberries and a deep red raspberry sauce. Paninis, salads, and soups round out the menu at Crepe Crazy.
