There's a very important distinction to be made between the ""Soup Nutsy"" (of Seinfeld fame: the use of the actual word is not permitted on this forum) and Crepe to Go.\r
\r
The Soup Nutsy's offerings were GOOD! (So good, in fact, you were willing to put up with any amount of abuse. That was the gag.)\r
\r
After eating at Crepe to Go (assuming the same situation was behind it, and looking forward to the ?adventure? of ordering a tasty treat), I think the owner?s attitude was probably inspired more by defensiveness. \r
\r
I read on another review that his attitude came from ?people asking for refunds?. After eating here, unfortunately I now sympathize with such requests.\r
\r
The sad fact of the matter is that the crepes here are VERY sub-par.\r
\r
I got the simple crepe with ham and cheese. (The ?John Wayne,? I think.)\r
\r
Although the crepe itself was okay, the ham inside was COLD, and the MEAGER cheese was completely UN-MELTED! \r
\r
So, imagine a crepe surrounding cold lunch meat and slivers of hard, unmelted cheese, and you get the full picture.\r
\r
All-in-all, as my date pointed out, our crepes were more like ?something a college kid would mix together after a night of drinking,? rather than anything executed with taste or skill.\r
\r
The dessert crepes, on the other hand, were decent (it?s hard to mess up strawberries, whipped cream and Nutella, after all).\r
\r
In sum: Dessert Crepes = Decent\r
Other Crepes = BAD\r
\r
(CODA: Another reviewer wrote his ?friend from France? always has to come here. All I can say is when I lived in Paris, I would buy a ?street crepe? each evening on the Rue Rivoli. The food here barely deserves the same word.)\r
\r
He should lighten up, but in lieu of that, \r
LEARN TO COOK!
Pros: Little Tokyo West is a great and interesting part of town
Cons: Poor food; desserts were better
