| - -- My First Impression --
After seeing fellow Yelper Wei C.'s review and Arlene B's photo, I knew I had to give T-Swirl Crepe a try (since I am a crepe lover ^^). This creperie is located in Langham Place, Markham. I saw some Instagramers saying that the waiting time was quite long, but for my experience, it was definitely less than 20 minutes. I waited around 10 minutes (given that there were two customers before me, four crepes in total). This is a fairly new creperie, I assume they needed time to train their staff and to make their crepes to perfection. The wait time is reasonable to me.
When I walked into T-Swirl, I was immediately greeted by the cashier. She gave a menu to me so we could pick and choose our own crepe. Even though it was not the hottest day of the summer, it was still around 28 degrees. T-Swirl definitely had some ventilation issues and it was very hot there. I was sweating like crazy and I seriously couldn't stay inside to eat my crepe.
-- Food and Drink --
We ordered 2 sweet crepes:
1. Wild Berries Sweet Crepe #6
- This wild berries sweet crepe was made with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, custard cream and whipped yogurt. Their fruits were very fresh! And surprisingly, they used 100% rice flour to make the crepe so it was naturally gluten free! The crepe itself was very chewy and crunchy! Their custard cream was very sweet, glad that they used yogurt to balance the flavor. The raspberries definitely added some tangy flavors to the crepe. I love how they added some chocolate pearls and granola on the crepe, so there was some crunchy texture when you bite into it!
2. Matcha Chocolate Truffles #5
-This crepe has less ingredients compared to the wild berries crepe, but it didn't make it any less delicious! Strawberries and chocolate truffles just simply went well together! Their matcha custard cream flavor wasn't very strong, I guess because the chocolate sauce and the whipped yogurt had a strong flavor as well. The crushed pistachio looked like edible gold on the chocolate truffle! Seriously, this was a piece of art! It was way too pretty to eat! When the store associate sprinkled the pistachio over the crepe, it looked like the fairy godmother using her magic wand. It was just so fun to watch.
-- Overall --
I would give this place a 3.5/5 for food; 1 extra point for their service, less 1 point for their poor ventilation system. (i.e. Round up to 4 stars). I may go back to try their savory crepe! :)
