Crepes, Endings, and New Beginnings

Hello roof hoppers, trickers, and lovers of savory and sweet! I'm Sorry I've been so delayed in my posting and hope that I have not vexed you in your wanting for more wonderful adventures! So, enough with the dilly-dallying and on to the good stuff!

For my food critiques today, I will relay an epic quest into the world of creativity using french breakfast! No.. I did not go to France, but instead I went to an incredible little hang out known as Roll-up Crepes on state street in Provo. This little nook of a restaurant specializes in new and exciting ways to make crepes, both savory ( for the meat lovers) and sweet ( like me!). The stylized paintings of local artists cover the walls when you walk in. The theme of the night owl is very prevalent due to the late hours in which the restaurant is open ( TIL 3AM!! BEST LATE NIGHT SNACK EVER!!). The atmosphere is fun and laid back, catering to both old and young alike. Yet, The best part is still to come! The menu of crepes is incredibly whimsical; Crepes  ranging from pork BBQ  to bananas foster cover the menu with it's delightful presentation and aroma. Service is quick and prices are quite good! If you're ever in a late night hunger. PLEASE stop by The Roll up crepe for an excellent atmosphere and breakfast guaranteed to make you smile.



 
This is the S'more Crepe.. It's massive and gooey. Try one .. you'll like it!

In addition to our night time sweet tooths, My wife and I also found a nice little cupcake shop that has probably one of the best treasures in Provo. It's called "The Cocoa Bean" and it's by far the best I've ever had." Why?" Do you ask?  Because not only are the cupcakes divine and gourmet, but the hot Chocolate is TO DIE FOR!! Imagine roasted cocoa beans ground  and percolated to perfection mixed with your favorite flavors to create a nutty mocha dream! The cupcake flavors are rotated through out the week and there are even mystery days  that have you guessing what great flavor they're gonna make next! If you're on a date or just want something warm this winter stop on in!!
It's So quaint and cozy! Perfect for dates!

I wish you could taste what is in that cup. It's the Irish Creme Cocoa Bean. The cupcakes are Key lime and coconut, and Better than sex cake .. yep  you read that right. OH BABY!

As for parkour.. I'm sad to say that my adventures with Jump Utah  have come to an end. I will be traveling back to Texas and will be finding other occupation there. Though I will no longer be part of the team, I will always cherish the love and friendship I built with these incredible athletes. You not only inspired me to be a better traceur, but a better person. May you all find your dreams and  may you never stop running with the wind. You have truly become my brothers. I will miss you.

Til Then... Train safe, Taste everything, and NEVER stop moving.
