| - After reading all the great reviews of this place, me and my guest opted to have our first breakfast during our vacay here at NYNY. We split a nutella/banana crepe (they are fairly large and are shareable). I had hyped this place up to my guest, telling them they were going to have amazing crepes, etc. etc. Totally a letdown. The crepe itself was nothing special, didn't seem particularly great texture or soft, - just boring. The nutella filling basically tasted like overly sweet chocolate. I felt it had way too much chocolate filling, so it seemed like every bite was a mouthful of gloppy chocolate and not enough crepe. (and the nutella flavor was very lacking, if you are nutella fan). We were both somewhat overloaded with chocolate to the point that we felt like we needed something else to cope with all the sweet. yuck. If people think that's what a crepe is supposed to be , then I guess they haven't had very many crepes in their life. A tender fluffy crepe, balanced with delicacy, subtle flavors - that's what makes a great crepe (and crepe filling.)
Maybe they have other crepes here that are better, but we were totally unimpressed and won't be back. ( we would have been very unhappy if we'd each had our own, at $10 each. At least we split it and saved our wallets a little).
