A friend and I were looking for a place for casual dining in Causeway Bay, and found Fleur de Sel by pure coincidence. I wanted to see whether there was a worthy alternative to La Crêperie.We started with two savory galettes:La Bretonne - this was OK, although there were only 3 scallops along with mushrooms, asparagus and lardons. Portion was smaller than I expected, and honestly the galette was too soft and wet. I prefer it dry and a little crispy. It also came lukewarm and went cold after
We started with two savory galettes:
La Bretonne - this was OK, although there were only 3 scallops along with mushrooms, asparagus and lardons. Portion was smaller than I expected, and honestly the galette was too soft and wet. I prefer it dry and a little crispy. It also came lukewarm and went cold after a couple of minutes when we had snapped our pictures.
La Guéméné - I have no idea why this was called Guéméné, since it was made with andouille de Vire and not andouille de Guéméné... It was kinda pathetic, actually, with only 3 thin slices of the delicious sausage along with some Emmental. Absolutely no comparison whatsoever with the one I had at Le Petit Josselin in Paris. Again, the galette was just too soft and wet.
We moved on to two sweet crêpes:
Crêpe à la banane et au caramel beurre salé - this was not bad. The caramelized banana, with salted butter caramel and a scoop of Mövenpick caramel ice cream made for a yummy combination.
La Bomba - the pineapple confit, raisins and espresso ice cream were flambéed with rum. This was OK but I was getting very full by this point.
We also drank a bottle of sweet cider from Le Clos des Ducs.
This was definitely a filling meal, but I much prefer La Crêperie both for the quality as well as the price-performance ratio. Not likely to make a return visit here...
