Ooohh La La!

My friends, Boise is not exactly known for its diversity.  But if you know where to look--hidden corners of the city, you will find little treasures like The Creperie.

Crepes are made of flour, milk, eggs and often butter and can be made sweet or savory.  I'd been to Crepe de Paris when I had lived in Victoria, but that had been years ago.  I vaguely remember perhaps a banana and nutella crepe?  Mostly I remember the French man who owned the place was annoyed we wanted separate checks (or should I say cheques?  I WAS in Canada.)

In the Edwards theater movie complex is this little French delight owned by a husband and wife.  I met up with my friend, Makaila at this place for lunch, and boy did we leave with happy tummies.


It was so hard to choose from the menu.  Everything sounded so tasty and you could tell that a lot of thought had been put into the ingredients for each crepe.




Eventually, I settled on the Parisian which included ham, spinach, onions, mozzarella and topped with a tasty raspberry chipotle sauce.






Makaila chose the Thai chicken which included chicken, spinach and sweet chili sauce.  It looked equally delicious.





We also ordered dessert crepes.  But guess what, we wolfed them down without a single picture.  I got the limon (lemon glaze) crepe and Makaila got a chocolate strawberry banana crepe.  It was hard to resist the ones filled with nutella, but nutella is my kryptonite and it's hard not to go out and buy a Cstco sized jar and eat it with a spoon all afternoon.

Thanks, Makaila for letting me stick my camera between you and your food!

If you're in the area, stop in!  And if not... be jealous.  ;)
