Cafe Crepe

Location: 246 Queen St. W. (west of University Ave.), downtown Toronto

Meal: dinner/snack

My thoughts:
I'd walked by this place numerous times back while I was in university and had never tried it. I suppose it had always seemed really commercialized, mainstream and just a student hang-out (i.e. cheap but not necessarily good). Anyway, when my friends suggested this place, I was dubious but decided to give it a try anyway. 

Oh boy. Was I ever glad I did! Although the restaurant looked really busy from the outside, we were promptly seated. The food itself really brings crepes to a whole new level. I had a chicken and mayonnaise crepe (notice a trend going here? I love mayo! You only live once, I say!) and my friend had an applesauce and cinnamon crepe. My crepe was $6.75 and my friend's $5.75 - very reasonably-priced.

I was blown away by how good the chicken was. I mean, it was literally an explosion of flavours in my mouth! After having a taste of my crepe, my friend's healthy crepe really paled in comparison. Don't get me wrong. I consider myself a healthy-eater (most of the time), but come on, when you're having crepes, you really shouldn't be holding back! Just my two cents..

My verdict: of course I will be coming back!! My only very minor complaint is that they could work on the presentation. It needs some visual appeal.
