| - Just getting a quick bite to eat at Kensington market on my way to a foot massage, I came across Kensington at the corner of Baldwin and Kensington. It's a sit down cafe, but orders are taken at the cash in the front. It attracted me with the big sign that said Gluten Free Menu.
I've been on this restrictive food elimination diet now, so I certainly appreciated the option to find something that I can eat. They have Gluten free Crepes (filled with pesto, spinach and sausage/bacon) or Muffins, and eggs with gluten free waffles, among some on the menu.
I got the Gluten free Crepe and requested the Vegan Pesto (no diary). On the menu it said $9.99, but she charged me 10.65 with a drink. Something fishy.
They are slow to take your order, but quick in preparation. I noticed the order before me was made out of a premade crepe, and mine out of the batter from a bowl. Maybe they ran out, maybe my gluten free one is more fresh than the non, or she just forgot and charged me for the wrong one, which is why I went to my massage with the sniffles. I'm not sure.
I kind of expected the crepe to be put inside a paper bag (a la Crepes a Go Go) so I can eat and walk at the same time. I don't know why I expected that and why I was shocked to be given a styrofoam box and cutlery. I realized this is NOT crepes a gogo, and I sat down on one of hte swing set chairs and scarfed down my crepe.
It was good, a little mushy. Not sure if it was the gluten free ness.
Prices were a bit steep.
