In The City

by on ‎10-10-2014 12:00 PM

West Chester is just 40 minutes outside of center city Philadelphia, and I love going into the city to try great restaurants. Beau Monde has been one of my favorites for over ten years. It’s a charming creperie and they serve the most incredibly sweet and savory crepes.


I met a friend for brunch there recently and once again, everything was delicious. I ordered a sausage, swiss and mushroom crepe and all I could say was... YUM!

If you’re ever in Philadelphia and longing for a great crepe, drop by Creperie Beau Monde. Or, if you’d rather just make crepes yourself, here’s a recipe my sister shared with me. Either way... YUM!


Crepes



  • 2 cups flour

  • 2 cups whole milk

  • 3 eggs

  • 3 tablespoons canola oil (or butter)

  • 1 tablespoon sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla


Blend ingredients in blender until smooth


Spray 9” nonstick skillet with non-stick cooking spray and heat on medium high


Ladle 1/3 cup of batter into pan and circle to spread to cover the bottom


Cook until lightly brown (1-2 minutes)


Flip and cook the other side


 


I rarely drink coffee, but I had a cup just to use this “cow creamer”



There is incredible mural art throughout the city



See you in the morning for AM Beauty and AM Style.
