This was extremely messy and even more difficult to eat than your normal crepe. It was dripping and soggy as soon as we got it.

We had to put it on a tray and dig into it instead of carrying it around to bite.

We took back our harsh judgment once we tasted the crêpe though. The Cajun Mayo and olive relish give this a spicy, zesty kick.

There’s a ton of filling, with lots of meat, cheese, arugula, and sesame seeds.

This might be our favorite crêpe from this location. If you’re missing the muffuletta sandwiches from previous events, this is an excellent substitution. Just grab a lot of napkins!

  1. Ouch, they sell the glass of wine for the price of a bottle, in France a bottle of 750ml (25.3oz) Domaine Paul Buisse Chinon cost 6,9€!

    Also the crêpe is very weird, you’ll never see a savory one served like that, but generally savory crêpes are made from Buckwheat flour and are called “galettes” with the more popular being by far the “jambon-fromage” (ham & cheese).
