Specializes in crepes of all kinds, both sweet and savoury. Located in the International Food Court at Lonsdale Quay.
Dropped by Lonsdale Quay over the weekend and stopped by the food court for a quick bite. I had the girlfriend choose and she decided on a savoury concoction of spinach, cheese and chicken. Simple ingredients and easy to make it was hard to screw it up. The crepe was nice and fluffy and the cheese melted well over the shredded chicken. They used just the right amount of baby spinach leaves which didn't leave it's strong raw understones over the rest of the ingredients.
Though a fast food court derivative, it look a good 10-12 minutes to make the crepe, which I found to be slow considering the little labour involved. Any lunch rush and they would be swamped.
They also offer ice cream and drinks. In an open food court setting, there's not much more I could say.
We ordered a simple nutella and banana crepe for lunch. The price seemed right until we realized that the server decided to add a ton of whip cream over the crepe when it was ready. Next thing you know we're paying an extra $0.99 for the whip without being asked if we wanted any. It would have been nice to be given the option -- what if we were lactose intolerant? We would have had to wait another 5 minutes for a new crepe and they would have wasted the one they'd just made!
Anyways, the crepe was a bit crispy, and didn't fill the entire crepe pan. The filling had enough nutella and a good helping of banana slices. This wasn't a crepe you could pick up in your hands and eat, especially with the whip cream that was dumped on the triangular point where most people could hold the crepe. Not sure if we'd order there again, but we'd definitely make sure we weren't scammed if we did.
