Tres Petite Crêperie Lexington

I saw a Groupon+ for Très Petite Crêperie in Lexington and decided to give them another chance, especially since they are under new ownership. I had a less than stellar experience on my last, and only, visit. No website but Grubhub seems to have an up to date menu. They have a website on the printed menu, but there is nothing there.

The address is on Mass Ave, but they are actually on a side street behind Bejing Chinese Dining. There is also free parking nearby if you know where to look. On the other hand, the metered parking is only a quarter/hour.

The menu is a LOT smaller, otherwise nothing has changed. There is limited seating. They now feature omelets and tacos.

I did have to try a crepe and picked the Jambon Crepe ($10.00). "Ham, Swiss, Dijon mustard, bechamel sauce and white cream sauce". Not sure what the difference between a bechamel and a cream sauce is? The crepe was very tasty and surprisingly filling. You also get a nicely dressed small salad and a cornichon. I can't remember when I last saw an actual cornichon.

I also ordered the Poutine ($7). "Cheese Curds & Beef Gravy". Hurray, gone is the tater tots, replaced by very nice French Fries that wasn't previously frozen, and they were salted after taken out of the fryolator. The gravy was a bit sparse, but the nice lady behind the counter topped it off, and also gave me a small cup of extra gravy. Fries were really good, the cheese was melted and the gravy was tasty. Overall this was a great improvement.

Google knows that Très and Tres are the same, Blogger doesn't.
