Who doesn't already love Jack n Jill's? The owners of the Beverly Hills/Santa Monica favorite have a new, more upscale endeavor in Beverly Hills. The Creperie doesn't feel all that fancy, and really the prices are reasonable too (about $10-12 a plate), but the quality of the food is exponentially higher than that of even Jack n Jill's cafe. I came for brunch (personally my favorite time for crepes) with a couple of friends, and I think everyone really enjoyed it. Even though I'm not that much of an egg enthusiast I ordered the Big Easy (ham & mozzarella with scrambled eggs in a wheat crepe under a blanket of sherry cream sauce). The eggs weren't even a problem for me. The cheese was melted just right and the sherry cream sauce was a little sweet and just really gave the dish some umph. A friend had the Healthy and Happy which was a sweet crepe filled with nonfat yogurt, fresh berries & banana, walnuts and a little honey. From the bite I had, I thought it was really good and she liked it as well, but she thought it felt a little like eating dessert. Our other friend had been recently for dinner and had such a great experience she was ready to go back within a week. I can't quite recall what she had, but I know it was something other than a crepe. At any rate, I can at least remember that she liked hers as well! Parking on Sunday wasn't a problem with ample free street parking on Beverly. It was such a cute, fun, delicious little place - I highly recommend it if you are looking for a place to brunch!
