I have tried so many crêpes. Most crêpes are home made. Among them, I would say crêpes from Ti Couz are first class. I did not know they serve Bretagne type crêpe before I went there.Ti Couz serves both sweet and saulty crêpes. The first time we were there with Totof's cousin. French know how to order crêpes. So, I consulted them before I ordered. For the entree, I had Ratatouille crêpe. For the desert, I took confiture crêpe. Ti Couz of course put chantilly on top of the crêpe.
Crêpe 101
Crêpes are of two types: crêpes sucrées and crêpes salées
Sweet crêpes (crêpes sucrées) are made with wheat flour and slightly sweetened, and savoury galettes (crêpes salées) are made with buckwheat flour and unsweetened. Buckwheat flour is dark. So, crêpes salées do not look beige. Instead, crêpes salées look in between grey and brown.
Many French will tell you crêpes originate from Bretagne. Where is Bretagne? It is a region in the northwest of France. It is said that crêpes were born in this region because they couldn't grow enough wheat to bake bread due to the poor land. No matter what is true, crêpe is a genius invention since crêpe will not make you fat.
