I love crepes. And surprisingly, this city is lacking in the crepe department. The only place I knew of was the little window in the Paris hotel. I am glad to see a few more crepe establishments open up, and I am even more glad to give them a try.
One of those new places is Crepe Expectations. I had great expectations for Crepe Expectations (ha-ha). And overall, I'd say they met most of them. The decor of the restaurant is nice and modern and the outdoor furniture is pretty comfy. There is even a flat screen above the counter that displays an overhead view of your crepe being made!
I hit up this place with a friend. Here's what we had:
-the Greek - a crepe filled with the typical greek items such as feta cheese and olives. The grilled chicken was a little dry and tough, but other than that, the rest of the crepe was delicious.
-the Caprese - the classic salad wrapped in a crepe. The pesto sauce on top was a nice touch.
-the Mimosa Trio Sampler- you get to choose from 5 flavors: classic orange, lychee, passion fruit, pomegranate and white peach. The lychee and the white peach were my favorites.
Today, the special was a chocolate covered strawberry with the mimosa trio sampler for $2 more. The one crepe and the mimosa sampler brought my total to a little over $20, which I thought was pretty pricy. I guess that's what happens when you add a little bubbly. But if you go and get just a crepe, they are reasonalbly priced anywhere from $5-$10, depending on how fancy you wanna get.
Crepe Expectations has a large variety of breakfast, savory and sweet crepes in addition to beer, wine, bubbly, coffee and tea. I can't wait to go back and try some more, especially the banana nutella crepe I was eying this morning.
