| - The last time I had a crepe it was dainty, like snack sized, and it was a dessert, not a main course. So that's what I was expecting until I got here. I was happily surprised to discover that the actual crepes they make start out as a thin, round batter on a griddle about a foot in diameter, then the ingredients are added and the crepe is then folded over into a neat, hearty triangle of deliciousness!
The menu offerings are plentiful and it includes Belgian waffles, breakfast crepes, dessert crepes, and savory crepes. There was also a side menu that I wish I had seen before I ordered, but it was oddly placed on a wall behind us by the tables and not in obvious view. There were some really tasty options there, too. The menus were masterfully, neatly handwritten, and very easy to read.
I ordered a Western crepe with ham, green peppers, onion and cheese, and I asked for bacon to be added. My daughter ordered the Tropical Paradise crepe with pineapple, coconut, and custard.
After ordering and paying for our food, the crepes were made and brought to our table. The crepes were quite thick and filling! I was expecting to have to order a second one because I thought I'd be hungry after the first one. Glad I didn't! Wow! We were both stuffed and satisfied. We didn't eat again for several hours later.
Don't expect a super fancy and dainty decor. This place is simple and cozy. Our food was served on paper plates with plastic flatware, so definitely no frills there, but the food is the important part of the experience and it did not disappoint.
Our entire bill came to about $21, which included coffee for both of us. I will definitely be returning to sample more menu items!
