Cafe Crepe - Granville & Robson
Taking the escalators up to the Future Shop at the corner of Granville and Robson, I can see all 6 tables at the Cafe Crepe. I decided to try it, having been previously frustrated by the long line-ups at their south Granville location.
I decide on the uniquely named Hot Dog Parisien - a weiner on a baguette with bechamel sauce and ethamel cheese for $4.95. There was a choice of adding ketchup, mustard or mayonnaise. Now I'm not very good at multiple choices, so I picked mustard.
Not bad, the baguette was a bit hard to chew but I guess that is the essence of the thing. The chew is the thing. The mustard topping was a good choice but I must be more adventurous next time.
Personally, I would have marketed this as chaud chien.
