It&#8217;s at the corner of Third and Peabody Place in the Hampton Inn, in the space where Corky&#8217;s BBQ used to be and before that Fat City Beignets.<\/p>\n<p>I went back there Sunday and ate and got a copy of their menu.  They have about 20 entree crepes ranging in price from $4.95 to $7.45.  A few entree crepe examples:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Steak Milanese<\/span> &#8211; Marinated steak, Virginia baked ham, sweet red onions, melted cheddar, vine ripe tomatoes, romaine lettuce, topped with steak sauce &#8211; $7.45<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Opulence<\/span> &#8211; Marinated chicken breast, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, portabella mushrooms, spinach, fresh basil, melted mozzarella &#8211; $7.45<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Havana Chicken<\/span> &#8211; Marinated chicken breast, season black beans, sweet red peppers, cheddar and jack cheese, fresh lettuce, vine ripe tomatoes, pesto sauce, and cilantro &#8211; $6.75<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Mediterranean Tuna<\/span> &#8211; Dolphin safe tuna, feta cheese, artichoke hearts, olives, fresh baby leaf spinach, vine ripe tomatoes, and fresh basil &#8211; $7.25<\/p>\n<p>Below is a pic of the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Southwest<\/span> crepe I had for lunch:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/uploaded_images\/swcrepe-758234.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block;text-align:center;cursor:pointer;margin:0 auto 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/uploaded_images\/swcrepe-756965.jpg?w=840\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><br \/>It comes in wrapping paper and you pick it up and eat it with your hands, kind of like you would a pita sandwich.<\/p>\n<p>Any entree crepe can also be made as a salad.<\/p>\n<p>They also have about 15 dessert crepes, ranging in price from $4.25 to $6.25.  A few examples:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Nutty Caramel Apple<\/span> &#8211; Fire roasted apples, topped with dulce de leche, sprinkled with cinnamon, walnuts and powdered sugar &#8211; $4.95<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Frankie<\/span> &#8211; Freshly sliced bananas, Nutella chocolaty spread, melted Reese&#8217;s pieces, real whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon &#8211; $4.95<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Bad Girl<\/span> &#8211; Sweet sliced strawberries, dulce de leche, powdered sugar, a dash of cinnamon, and a dash of Grand Marnier &#8211; $4.95<\/p>\n<p>They also have a selection of egg crepes, served all day long ($4.50 to $4.95), and crepes a la mode ($5.50 to $5.95).<\/p>\n<p>Crepe Maker has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crepemaker.com\/\">website<\/a>, but they didn&#8217;t include the most important thing a restaurant should put on its website &#8211; a menu.  So you&#8217;ll have to go by their location at Third and Peabody Place and pick up a menu for yourself.  They&#8217;re open at 7 AM everyday, close at 7 PM Mon-Thur, 9 PM Fri-Sat, 5 PM Sun.<\/p>\n<p>Note to blog reader &#8220;Stan&#8221; who e-mailed, accusing me of taking payoffs from EP&#8217;s Delta Kitchen in exchange for saying nice things about them on my blog:  I guess now you&#8217;ll accuse Crepe Maker of paying me off.  By the way, that&#8217;s a hell of a gig your band has scheduled for New Year&#8217;s Eve, congratulations on that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday as I headed to Beale Street for the Christmas parade, I happened across a new restaurant called Crepe Maker.
