Walked past and saw a sweet menu serving crepes, desserts and savoury items.
I looked at the menu, I was so surprised, Kaneda being a Japanese cuisine, serving the Crepes at La Creperie.
Studying the menu further, it saids they have a branch in Shanghai, which is possible they imitated La Creperie in Shanghai, and now serving it in Hong Kong.
On my last visit, when they newly opened in Wan Chai, crepes were not available yet, only the desserts section. Ironically, it is located not far from La Creperie.
Anyway, from the menu, the crepes were 90% the same as La Creperie, even the name and ingredients used such as Roblochon cheese, organic egg, La complete, La suzette, La sextant and the history of Brittany!!!
The price was matched to La Creperie too but only slightly cheaper.
Same as my last visit, despite being the first customer there, I had to wait a while for the receptionist to call the staff upstairs and arrange a table. Same as before the staffs are not flexible at allocating preferred tables.
After browsing the menu, ordered the Sausage must (assorted sausages, cheese, french mustard, salad) and La mouselline (homemade salmon pate, spinach sauce).
I ordered the sausage must because the picture showed the sausages were not the usual boring frankfurters but one I havent tried before, and the salmon one because salmon pate sounds interesting and the green spinach sauce was appealing.
Same as La Creperie, the crepes also took a while to arrive, after waiting for half an hour the salmon one arrived.
It looked similar to the ones at La Creperie, however the spinach sauce was totally different to their product shot, apart from that there was salad, mini bowl of criss cut fries, asparagus, mushrooms and extra sauce.
The spinach sauce was different to the product picture, it was creamy white sauce with spinach pieces in it.
The restaurant was beginning to fill up that time, and the air con was turned on full blast, and it was like sitting in windy a freezer.
Anyway, the sausage crepe was yet to arrive, and with the windy air con, I had to tuck into my salmon crepe.
I started on the asparagus, and mushrooms which were both good, then I tried the crepe, despite looking very similar to La Creperie it was tasteless, the crepe was too thick, and not crispy at all.
The salmon was very bland, and the texture not like pate at all or mousse as the name sounds.
Then the sausage crepe arrived, also looking nothing like the product picture, the sausages were different. The sausages were slightly over salty.
After finishing the crepe, I wanted to have crumpets as well, but the air con was doing my head in.
Anyway ordered that as well, and chose apricot jam with it.
It was a gamble ordering the crumpets, because not sure if they could make one well, if their pancakes were so so.
The crumpets arrived dusted in icing sugar served with butter and apricot jam.
The apricot jam was orange in colour and slightly runny.
The crumpets didn’t have many capillaries as the ones I had before and the base was slightly tough, but maybe because I haven’t had it for ages, it tasted OK, however I think I am going to buy a frozen one from the supermarket and compare it to that. So far, this is the only restaurant I have tried that serves crumpets.
I think next time I will try their sweet crepes and desserts.
