General Info:

A Little Crepe History: A crêpe (pronounced /kre?p/, French IPA: [k??p]) is a type of very thin, cooked pancake usually made from wheat flour. The word, like the pancake itself, is of French origin, deriving from the Latin crispa, meaning "curled." While crêpes originate from Brittany, a region in the northwest of France, their consumption is nowadays widespread in France and is considered the national dish. Crêpes can be compared to the African injera, the tortilla, the Indian dosa and the Mexican sope. Types and Special Crêpes: Crêpes are especially popular throughout France. The common ingredients include flour, eggs, milk, butter and a pinch of salt. Crêpes are usually of two types: sweet crêpes (crêpes sucrées) made with wheat flour and slightly sweetened, and savoury galettes (crêpes salées) made with buckwheat or wheat flour and unsweetened. Passionate about Crepes, the opening of DC Scoop Cafe is the life long ambition of the owner. Trained by one of the best crepe chef's in Paris, the owner is proud to bring a touch of Europe to DC and serves his crepes with only the finest ingredients.
