The Tai On Building in Sai Wan Ho is a rather hidden foodie area. Popular with the residents of Sai Wan Ho, adventurous foodies head here for a lot of interesting eats. Many of these places are strictly take away only. You basically stand there with your food. One such place is I Love 戟 - 日式班戟專門店. A small take away shop specializing in Japanese style crepes. You know, the ones in a cone shape topped with cream and fruit. Though it's popular, it unfortunately is closing it's doors. I decided to
Menu is in Chinese only. Though they do have a few photos of their more popular crepes. There is no 10% service charge and it is cash only. There is about a half hour wait time as there is only one person working. Yes, he does EVERYTHING so give him a break. Don't rush him.
All crepes include a scoop of ice cream. They are a variety of common flavors like vanilla and strawberry.
I decided to get their signature crepe: the creme brulee crepe ($32). What you get is a creme brulee on top. There is surprsingly a lot of creme brulee and the topping was well caramelized. The creme brulee was also quite smooth and custardy. Under the creme brulee was a nice decent scoop of ice cream. I chose vanilla as it seemed to go with a creme brulee. The crepe was also thin and not overly chewy. This was pretty good and you get a lot for what you pay for.
I would be back but then again, I don't know if I can as I think it will close soon.
