I was in the mood for some good crêpes, I read some recommendations on Yelp of a crêpe restaurant on Södermalm. So, we decided to give it a try. Once we got there, we found out that it wasn't open until later that evening, so we looked up another place. We found À La Crêpe, which was open, and decided to give it a whirl.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice with candlelit tables and a fairly unique restroom. There were many, many choices of crêpes on the menu and I was excited to try one. The one that looked the most appetizing at the time was described as a crêpe with fresh cheese, dark chocolate, blueberries, and topped with ice cream.
I was quite surprised when I bit into my crêpe to find it full of cream cheese. That wasn't what I expected when I read "fresh cheese." I also was a bit disappointed that there were no blueberries at all in my crêpe. So, it was basically a crêpe filled with cream cheese and most likely a chocolate spread like nutella. Don't get me wrong, it did have a very good flavor, but if the menu had said that the crêpe was slathered with cream cheese and a chocolate spread, I would have made a different selection.
We were the only table in the entire restaurant that was occupied. However, our server still managed to be extremely inattentive. I would probably give À La Crêpe about 1 star in the service category.
Maybe we should have waited until the other crêpe restaurant opened later that evening. read more
