| - I came with 2 other friends on a weekday afternoon right before dinner time. The first thing to mention is that this store is tucked away in a corner so even though I was specifically looking for it, it took a few minutes. The staff were super friendly as soon as we walked in and they were ready to answer any questions. However, this place is pretty small so I wouldn't suggest bringing a big crowd or your extended family. It would be best if you're looking for a grab and go. My friends and I shared 2 savoury crepes and 1 sweet crepe:
1. Okinawa Hot Dog ($10.45): included the Okinawa hot dog, mesclun mix, julienned carrots, cheddar cheese, red onions, red peppers, corn, banana ketchup, and tofu sauce. I was pretty impressed with how they included ingredients from the top to bottom of their crepe. It was pretty delicious. However, it is not good for sharing. They didn't have any plates and no knives either. Only plastic forks and spoons. It came on a stand and that was pretty cute.
2. Smoked Salmon ($11.95): included smoked salmon, cream cheese, baby spinach, capers, red onions, and string beans. Again, they included ingredients from the top to bottom of the crepe but I was a bit disappointed with this one because the cream cheese flavour wasn't as strong as I would like it to be and I couldn't taste the string beans at all. However, there was a good amount of smoked salmon and they were flexible when I asked for no onions.
3. Matcha Azuki Bean ($9.95): strawberries, matcha custard cream, red bean, whipped yogurt, matcha gelato, almonds and chocolate pocky sticks. Ingredients from top to bottom, but I couldn't taste the red bean and the matcha gelato definitely wasn't up to standard. Nonetheless, it was a good compliment to the savoury crepes we just had.
Overall, the crepes weren't as thin as I would've liked and some flavours just weren't there but they were a good snack because they made me feel satisfied and not bloated. Even though they didn't have any plastic knives, they brought one out from the kitchen for us so the service was there. I took a look at the drink menu and asked for dairy substitutes and they didn't have any. Not only that, their lattes are made with whole milk and their shakes with the gelato so I opted out from that. I would probably come again if someone were to mention it but not on my own.
