| - Apricot Tree, haven't been back since 7 years (partially because I don't live near the place, nor does the name pop up in my mind). Looks like they're still just as strong as they were.
Went with a couple of friends, for a snack/dessert, love the atmosphere of the environment, very spacious and contemporary. Their main known dishes revolve around their crepes (at least from the last time I went 7 years ago), so that's exactly what we bought. Two crepes, the Denmark and the Tutti Frutti.
Both of them were excellent, crepes were light, not overly sweet and the ice cream scoops we selected were delicious. On the Denmark, we had the Pistachio and Apricot Ginger ice cream, both with great flavour. The Apricot Ginger flavour surprised me with the unexpected pink-ish colour, when I was expecting a bit more orange colour. Generally a lot of crepe places can be way too sugary but the balance on both crepes was perfect.
I would only say the slightly negative part of this is probably the service, but it's pretty minor. The waitress, not sure if understaffed but they're not very attentive and require flagging down to get the bill or get more water/coffee. But again, it's a minor complaint, but it does need some mentioning.
Overall, enjoyable place, great desserts, unfortunately couldn't try the entrees, so this isn't really a full review of this place.
