Memorial Athletic Club & Aquatic Center is a unique facility that's pretty popular among Houston locals. First of all, there's no contract required to join this gym. Second, the gym features a "MAC for Women" area exclusively set aside for women who prefer to work out in an all-female environment. With your membership you'll also get two free appointments with a fitness instructor, whose goal will be to help you develop a fitness program that is custom-designed to fit your life and personal fitness goals.

Want to develop strength and sculpt your muscles? Head to the weight room, which features both free weights and machines. Interested in an upbeat Aumba or dance class to help get your heart rate up? This gym's got plenty of those, too. And if swimming is something you enjoy, don’t forget the gym’s aquatic center, which offers both indoor and outdoor pools.

Amazing 2×2 with large windows really showing off the amazing view of the Galleria area. 2 months free and great same day lease incentives make this apartment a gem. Not to mention the GIGANTIC patio, great for entertaining.

2 months free ends soon and availability for this plan is limited. I do urge you to hurry and schedule your visit as soon as possible so you dont miss out on this amazing special!!

Owners Sean Carroll and Tish Ochoa fell in love with the classic creperies that line the streets of Paris, and after spending their honeymoon in the City of Light, the couple decided to open up their own creperie back home in Houston. Their open-air crepe cart, Melange Creperie, debuted in 2010 and is still going strong today, serving up Parisian style crepes with your choice of either two or three ingredients.

Try a classic Nutella and banana combination, or bite into a fresh strawberry and chantilly cream combination. If you prefer savory flavors, try the classic ham, egg, and cheese, or go for one of the daily lunch specials, which can include everything from zucchini and chili to seasoned potatoes. Regulars say you should know that this cart gets busy, and that at peak times you should be prepared to wait for your order (paying with exact change can speed things up a bit). You'll have lots of company while you wait, however, as you chat with the crowd that generally gathers around this popular cart.
