🐾 Bonjour, friends! It’s me, Halo the Tourism Dog, back with another adventure for my “Halo’s Hangouts” series. Today, I got to visit The Lazy Maid Crêperie in historic downtown Brooksville—and let me tell you, it was paw-sitively amazing! 🥞🐶

The wonderful folks there made me my very own dog crêpe (yes, you heard that right—they even have dog crêpes on the menu just for pups like me! 🐕✨). It was delicious, and I think I might have found my new favorite hangout spot.

But here’s the really cool part: The crêperie is inside a house that was built back in the mid to late 1800s! A piece of Brooksville’s history now filled with the sweet smell of fresh crêpes, laughter, and happy tails like mine. 🐾

If you’re strolling through Brooksville, bring your humans to The Lazy Maid Crêperie for a treat—and don’t forget to ask for a dog crêpe so we can share in the fun. 🐾💛
