We tend to think of crêpes as a brunch basic, but Spanel
Crêperie serves up the sweet and savoury French staple all
hours of the day.
Folded like fans, the savoury buckwheat crêpes are stuffed with
tasty ingredients, like the immensely satisfying Griffin T ($12), with
ham, strong cheddar cheese and sweet caramelized apples. Daily specials
reflect the whims of Brittany-born owner and chef Yann Bris, and we
lucked out with a asparagus and prosciutto combination, drenched in
delicious mornay sauce. Dishes are served with a side of fruit, so you
could skip dessert. But you wont want to when you see the Chococao ($6),
a sweet crêpe exploding with fresh whipped cream and smothered in
chocolate sauce and bananas.
Crépes. Theyre whats for dinner. And brunch. And lunch. And dessert.
Also a snack. Jennifer Nachshen
