| - The Millie Creperie is apparently the first place to serve Japanese crepe cakes and parfaits in Toronto (finally!). I can attest to this, as I noticed that the staff there actually spoke Japanese. The store is located in Kensington Market. The space is tiny, can seat maximum around 15 people, so takeouts are recommended. I came here around opening time on a Saturday afternoon, and the place was already packed! They serve both sweet and savoury crepes, parfaits, as well as the infamous Millie crepe cake.
I ordered the Tori crunch crepe. The fresh-off-the-grill crepe forms a triangular cone, which is filled with chicken, cucumber, corn flakes (gives it the crunch), cheese, and a spicy mayo. One bite into it, and I immediately fall in love with the spicy, savoury, and crunchy combination!
The sweet crepes are also delicious as well. I tried some of my friend's Japanese special crepe, which is filled with strawberry pieces, red bean paste, matcha, whipped cream, and topped off with a scoop of green tea ice cream. It's a great snack on a hot summer day! We also couldn't resist getting a slice of their famous green tea Millie Crepe cake to go.
Overall, I'm very glad that I finally found a place in Toronto that has crepe cakes! If you love crepes as much as I do, then you have to try this place!
