“Modern European Crepes with a Twist.”
Thanks to Nick for passing on from Crepe Crazy DMV:
“As many of you know, we started this journey as Crepe Crazy Baltimore, bringing sweet and savory crepes to the heart of Charm City. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve now expanded with a brand-new café at Union Market in Washington, DC! (more…)
1800 Wyoming Ave, NW
“Dear PoPville,
Wanted to spread some awareness and hopefully business for Coin des Poètes on 18th & Wyoming Ave in AdMo. They are a crêperie and coffee shop with the sweetest French bohème vibe—they even have paint supplies to use!! (more…)
I saw a twitpic from @PQliving on twitter and stopped by yesterday when I was checking out Ping Pong Dim Sum. The crepe place is now open off 7th Street near G by the entrance to the mall/Gallery Place movie theater. I’d love to sneak some crepes into the movie theater… Here’s a look at the menu:
Do those prices seem reasonable?
After the jump are the two other kiosks one opened and one coming soon. (more…)
A couple of weeks ago I said that a Crepes Place was coming to 1736 14th Street, NW in the old Circle Boutique spot. Well I was close, it turns out Point Chaud Cafe & Crepes will be opening up there. I’m not sure if they’re affiliated with Crepes-a-Go-Go but it sounds awesome! And if that weren’t good enough another Crepes spot, Crepes on the Corner, is coming to the corner of 14th and S in the old Garden District space.
According to the Crepes on the Corner Web site:
“Coming to DC December 2009, owners Chef Vincent Bradberry and Joe Carmack of Garden District bring a simple and genuine crêperie to 14th Street, NW. Both are long time Mid-City business guys with a mindset to use local ingredients and produce.
Expect delicious crpes made fresh to order, homemade soups, salads, and a great cup of coffee. This is the place to get a healthy quick bite for lunch, an after dinner dessert crepe, and to stop by as the bars close.”
What are the odds of two crepes spots opening so close to each other?
Ever since Circle Boutique closed their doors at 1736 14th Street, NW I’ve been wondering what may go into that spot. Now keep in mind, whenever I use scuttlebutt in the title, it is just that, scuttlebutt. Rumor. Hearsay. I did hear it from a very reliable source but I don’t believe anything is in stone at the moment.
Nevertheless, I’m pretty excited about this possibility. I’m hearing that Crepes-a-Go-Go may open up another location at this spot. They currently have a store at 2122 P Street, NW. You can see their menu here. Any fans? Think a crepe spot will work for this location on 14th near Logan Circle?
After seeing this spot on Calvert Street in Woodley Park back in September, I asked where was the best spot to get crepes in the city? Alas, I guess folks weren’t ordering enough crepes here. Or this spot at 2311 Calvert Street might be cursed as it seems to change businesses every 6 months to a year since the video store went out of business. Maybe it should become a wine bar…
This great shot of “the crepe man” is from hellomarkers!. I like the action shot. Hmm, here’s a good question – do you prefer savory crepes or sweet crepes? That might be an impossible question to answer…
