Blah Blah More Brasserie

You know, just in case you've missed my blathering obsession with La Brasserie.

The Suckling Pig.

The Friday Boulliabase.

Screamers!

Slurpee + Soft-Serve Icecream = Screamer.
My newest favorite thing on Davie.

You can get them from Baguette Time (between Bute and Jervis), just don't get their baguettes. Gourmet Sandwhiches MY ASS.

La Bretagne Creperie

What makes a place special? Amazing food? A great first impression? A collection of nostalgic memories of hung-over mornings?

There's this unpretentious little crepe place at Robson and Jervis (don't confuse this with the horrendous Cafe Crepe franchise), that for whatever reason or combination of the right moments, is a place that I have come to love. It's called La Bretagne Creperie and it serves both sweet and savory crepes which range from $6-11. With a cup of tea on the patio, the sun shining, and adorable french accents within earshot, it's a great place to enjoy the last days of summer. This Creperie may not be perfect but I will forgive them for almost anything, including forgettful service. You can't really blame them, it's not their fault they're French.

Jody's Ham and Swiss Cheese. We were both dissipointed with the lunch meat ham, but the crepes are this lovely paper thin texture.

Being a creature of habit, my usual is the #3 Breakfast Special: Scrambled Eggs, Ratatouille, and Swiss Cheese; for a whopping $8.50 it also comes with tea or coffee.
