Wallowing in French Nostalgia at Crêpes Oh la la (Formerly known as Crêpes-a-Go-Go)

Nothing compares to the crêperies in France, but I have to say that there's a pretty decent one in my own backyard. 


What was once part of the Crêpes-A-Go-Go chain, is now apparently independent and now called Crêpes Oh La La. Though the name changed and its location is a couple blocks farther from the Broadway Plaza area in Walnut Creek, the service and food remain the same. Which makes me wonder about the change in the first place, but, I digress...

The Sautéed Chicken with Tomatoes, Bell Peppers, Garlic, and Onion ($6) savory crêpe is a new favorite of mine. It's as if they put all the elements of a pasta into a crêpe, minus the pasta. They don't skimp on the ingredients at all, and it's perfect if you're in the mood for something hearty and filling. 

You can't leave here without having a dessert crêpe, especially one with Nutella. I devoured Nutella when I lived in France and so every now and then I have a hankering for it. Pictured is the Nutella Banana Crêpe ($4.75), which is split into two (a perfect serving after eating an entire savory kind!). You get just the right amount of every ingredient, and the best part is the warm nutella coating your every bite. 

This restaurant is for those who want an affordable, traditional piece of France after a long day of shopping.  The menu has a variety of options that'll appeal to any mood or craving, and you can personalize your very own by adding extra elements.
