Loved our visit here yesterday, I was so happy to finally get to try out these delicious traditional crepes and especially to hang out with the kind, cool, super friendly gentleman owner and chef. The beautiful, folded like a flower, pretty, apple crêpe with caramel sauce was a delight and I can’t wait to go back and try more of the savoury options. The café is lovely and tiny and white with sweet pieces of vintage ceramics and old family photos as décor. There are other lovely baked goods here, but the focus is almost entirely on the different kinds of white and sarrasin crepes, thin, perfectly made, awesome. Just wonderful.

the one place i didn’t want to share at all for many selfish reasons as well as privacy reasons but it would be un-elite like not to share and it’ll be a disservice to the business especially if its fucking great! so here goes: small french crêperie located in what was previously the original cardeline which was french too. so we went from Provence(previous tenant) to Bretagne for the famously known crêpe breton. here, that’s what the owner does, giving us the lovely thin french crêpe, not to be confused with the american pancake which we call crêpe too. you get the sweet crêpe(caramel, nutella) and the savory one(cheese, sausage). very simple but efficient menu. know that the caramel is homemade and its the best seller of the place and that yes, he sells cute little jar of the caramel. there’s a fine balance of sweetness in the caramel, not too much, not too little. if you’ve had the perfect butterscotch, this is way better. to go along your crêpe, he serves coffee from st-henri. yes, its a love and hate relationship with st-henri but know that, it is the lighter roast so taste wise, it is very very mild. just the perfect little companion with the crêpe to wash your palate clean between bites. probably not the one i’d drink by itself. there’s other beverages but i tend to prefer coffee. and the café reeks of french from the décor to the crêpe to the, obviously, owner and to the music. where else can you get that orgasmic moment when you’re scrapping the plate clean of caramel while that famous gainsbourg & birkin song plays in the background? the place is full of love and that’s why we’re going to be fat. perfect for winter!

Garden variety hipster café. Although there are plenty of electrical outlets on the wall, there’s no internet — not exactly practical for working or research purpose. The crêpes are delish however.

We were shopping for a bag across the street, but I had eyed up Milo et Fine before we had even stepped into the store as a potential spot for a coffee afterwards. It looked cute and welcoming on the outside with a tractor painted on the window front, which definitely drew in my 2 year old son. We were warmly welcomed and ordered 3 hot drinks and a little Breton cake. All were delicious and served in carefully selected, sweet, vintage dishes. Their saucers even matched one I use at home to hold a bar of soap! I loved the Breton-inspired nautical decorations and the clean modern feel to the café but with lovely vintage touches. It was the perfect spot for an afternoon cup. I noticed that they used beans from a St Henri roasting company. I am always a fan of local cafés using local beans and other products. I am loving all the shops and cafés opening up on Beaubien. I wished I lived a little closer!
