Crepes could very well be the perfect food. No matter what time of day it is, or what you want stuffed in it, the crepe works — in the morning, maybe go for the standard European nutella and banana; for lunch, go for a crepe that's savory, with ingredients like… potato salad, proscuitto, onions and capers? Yes, and that's just the tame end of owner Kaz Yokoi's new creperie, Cecel Crepe Café. Broken into sweet and savory menus, his cone-shaped crepes offer tantalizing blends, including some Asian influenced options like the red bean and fresh strawberry or hijiki seaweed, chick pea and mustard sauce. No crepe creeps above $7.50, making it a prime destination for quick late night eats on the cheap. Cash only.
