Whoo hoo! First to review! T-Swirl is an American franchise that makes sweet and savoury Japanese style crepes and this is the first Canadian franchise that has opened up here in Markham.
Japanese Crepes are different from traditional crepes as rice flour is used instead of regular flour so this is a gluten free alternative for those who are interested. Rice flour based crepes are much more crispy then flour based crepes so the crepes actually stay crispy longer.
These guys just opened today so my friend grabbed a #11 T-Swirl Fruit Cocktail Crepe. It was excellent! They definitely didn't skimp on the fillings as it was filled to the rim and for an average appetite big enough to share, but I'm pretty sure many of you will be a little greedy and eat the whole thing by yourself:)
Most people will probably compare this to Muncheez but I haven't gone there yet, so can't compare the two. But being Japanese style crepes you really shouldn't compare the two anyways.
They just opened and have 20% Grand Opening on all crepes till Augusts 4th, so take advantage of this special. The service was a little slow but that is completely understandable as they just opened and hopefully they will become more efficient. Look forward to trying many more crepes to come!
UPDATE: Just went back today and tried a savoury crepe and went for the Angus Short Rib... OMG!!!! It was outstanding! The flavour combination was awesome with the Angust Short Rib, Veggies, Chipotle Mayo etc.. was fantastic! I'm still drooling about it since I had it!
