Creperies: The Delicious History and Must-Try Favorite Crepes at Pause Café

Crepes are one of France’s most iconic dishes, beloved worldwide for their versatility and deliciousness. At Pause Café, a charming French restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, you can indulge in a delightful array of sweet crepes that capture the essence of authentic French cuisine. Let’s take a closer look at the fascinating history of crepes and some must-try options that will leave you craving more.

Did you know that crepes are believed to have been invented by mistake? Legend has it that in Brittany, France, a thin layer of buckwheat porridge accidentally spilled onto a hot cooking surface, creating the first-ever crepe. This happy accident quickly became a culinary sensation, and over time, the crepe evolved into the versatile dish we know today. While galettes, their savory counterpart, are traditionally made with buckwheat flour, sweet crepes are made with white flour, making them a perfect dessert or snack.

At Pause Café, sweet crepes take center stage with a menu that caters to every craving. Whether you’re a fan of classic flavors or looking for something unique, there’s a crepe for everyone. Here are some of the must-try options:

• Nutella Crepe: A crowd favorite, this crepe is generously slathered with Nutella for the ultimate chocolate indulgence.
• Caraïbe: A tropical delight featuring pineapple in brown sugar, coco cream milk, and homemade salted butter caramel.
• Bounty: For coconut lovers, this crepe combines shredded coconut, chocolate sauce, and whipping cream for a decadent treat.
• Suzette: This classic French crepe is served with a homemade Grand Marnier sauce, adding a sophisticated touch (contains alcohol).
• Homemade Salted Butter Caramel: A timeless choice that highlights the rich, buttery flavor of French caramel.

Crepes are more than just a dessert; they’re a cultural experience. The thin, delicate texture of the crepe serves as a blank canvas for a variety of flavors, allowing you to enjoy them in countless ways. At Pause Café, the crepes are freshly made to order, ensuring every bite is as light and flavorful as it should be.

One of the best things about sweet crepes is their ability to satisfy any sweet tooth. From the fruity goodness of the Exotic Crepe (featuring vanilla ice cream, peach, and homemade hot chocolate) to the comforting richness of the Grand Mère (vanilla ice cream, apple compote, and biscoff crumble), there’s a crepe for every mood and occasion.
