Cafe Grillades – Crepe a bite after a long flight

March 09, 2010 By: Mai Truong Category: California - The Bay Area, French, sweet snacks and desserts, Vegan


The San Francisco airport is a great excuse to eat out on the other side of the bay. Catching a morning flight? Breakfast at Milbrae Pancake House. Picking up parents and wanting to show them around at mid day? Lunch at La Boheme in Burlingame. Arriving in a lazy afternoon after four hours confined in the airplane’s seat with a neck cramp and in the mood for something nice, light but hearty? A crepe at Cafe Grillades of San Bruno sounds just right.

It’s one of those homey places where you can nibble a panini while reading the chronicles, sit by the window and gaze at a quiet parking lot, or meet someone for a casual interview. It has the boureks and the Algerian couscous if you want to impress old friends with an interesting order, but it also serves classic ham and cheese on toast all day. It will satisfy both the burger hunger and the vegan healtheist. It has the West European facade, the Mediterranean sum up, the North Saharan novelty, the San Franciscan appeal. In plain view, Cafe Grillades has a pretty good all-inclusive menu.

But we came here for crepes, and get crepes we did. Somehow the herbivore in Mudpie and the carnivore in me switched place that day. Mudpie decidedly took on the Algiers Merguez, spicy lamb and beef sausage mingled with chunky potatoes,  mushy tomatoes, and slabs of onions in crème fraiche (first picture). I, feeling betrayed by the chicken burrito on the plane, went down the defiant path with a ratatouille flat square hot pocket.


My reasoning was simple: I like meat, so if I like something sans meat then that vegan thing must be really good. And it was. In fact, it was better than the Merguez sausage crepe. Eggplant was one of those healthy veggies my mom had to funnel down my throat, but here it fit in so well with zucchini, bell pepper, and more onion. Feta cheese clumped a few tangy notes. The crepe innards were definitive of satisfaction.


Gratified, we charged onto dessert. A mango crepe brulee with brown sugar, creme fraiche, and caramelized top. This mix between a tart freshness and a fixating sweetness, some chewy underripe fruit and a thin malleable encasing,  is, my friends, the best any sweet crepe can be.

  6. Cách bảo quản chè Thái Nguyên được lâuTrà xanh rất dễ hút ẩm và ám mùi từ môi trường xung quanh nên cần bảo quản trong hộp kín, tránh ánh nắng trực tiếp và nơi có độ ẩm cao. Nên để trà trong túi hoặc hộp kín khí, đặt ở nơi khô ráo thoáng mát, tránh xa các loại thực phẩm có mùi mạnh như cà phê hay gia vị vì trà rất dễ hấp thụ mùi lạ. Nếu bảo quản đúng cách, trà xanh Thái Nguyên có thể giữ được hương vị tốt trong khoảng 6 tháng đến 1 năm sau khi mở gói.

  7. Thành phần và lợi ích sức khỏe của trà xanh Thái NguyênTrà xanh nói chung, trong đó có trà Thái Nguyên, chứa hàm lượng cao các hợp chất polyphenol, đặc biệt là catechin và EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) — được xem là chất chống oxy hóa mạnh, có khả năng trung hòa gốc tự do trong cơ thể. Bên cạnh đó, trà xanh còn chứa caffeine tự nhiên với hàm lượng thấp hơn cà phê, cùng L-theanine — một axit amin có tác dụng tạo cảm giác tỉnh táo nhưng thư thái, không gây bồn chồn như khi uống cà phê.
