I love this cookbook! It's features a great assortment of both sweet and savory crepes. Some are a little too gourmet for my taste (I'm thinking of the Shrimp & Jicama crepes, specifically), but most are simple, easy and delicious. The best part about this cookbook is it quickly shows you how quick and versatile crepes are. They can be used like pancakes, like tortillas, and sometimes even like pasta (like with Spinach and Ricotta crepes....just like manicotti). It's easy to throw ice cream, fruit, or nuts into a crepe for an amazing dessert. Sure, the book shows you plenty of amazing recipes, but taking the basic ideas and coming up with your own creation is a snap. This is a marvelous book. Sure to make a crepe enthusiast out of you!
lots of recipes, but you only need a couple

I made crepes a couple times before, but they never came out well. After reading this, I made three perfect batches using the basic recipes. I like making a batch, then filling them with things and keeping them in the refrigerator for breakfasts. With the recipes and tips in this book, I haven't had a single problem.
Deliciously different!

I got this book as a gift and I absolutely love it! Crepes are light, fluffy, thin, surprisingly versatile, and low-fat when made with skim milk & egg substitutes. This book has both sweet and savory recipes to give you plenty of ideas. My favorite recipe of all time is Crepes + chocolate-hazelnut spread + bananas. Two words: yum-mie. You'll have a blast with this book!
