A definite bang for the buck (euro), crepes are filling, sweet or savory, fresh, hot, for people on the go. My favorite breakfast on the run.<br

The menu: SUCREE, 2 to 3 euros: beurre et sucre, confiture, noix de coco rapee, citron, banane, creme de marron, cannelle, grand marnier, nutella, chocolat noir or….SALEES, 2 to 4 euros: beurre et sel, jambon, fromage, fromage oeuf, fromage poulet or…..invent your own.

Crepes are traditionally celebrated every February 2, La Chandeleur, originally Virgin Mary’s Blessing Day. Some say it was believed to be for the return of the light (winter is almost over, spring is nearing). Others believed if you could catch the crepe with a frying pan after tossing it in the air with your right hand and holding a gold coin in your left hand, you would become rich that year. You choose what you’d like to believe.
