crêpe’d up

4 06 2008

I finally made my first trip to Out of the Pan. I’m pretty sure everyone who frequents Raffles City knows that place. Located at B1, just below the escalators and around the fountain area. That’s the place!

This restaurant is especially for those who prefer to have a light and simple meal. Although the menu had limited choices of main course with only one type of food (crêpes) it had a variety of desserts and drinks. However today wasn’t a day for dessert or drinks so I had a crêpe.

So what on earth is a crêpe? It’s a type of very thin pancake, originating from France. Crêpes are prepared by pouring the thin batter onto a pan. It is usually made of wheat but there are other variations too.

Menu: Cheesy Chicken Sausage crêpe (Whole Wheat)
Venue: Out of the Pan
Price: S$ 13.00
Verdict: 3/5

The crêpe was not elaborate and perfect for me this afternoon as I wasn’t hungry and did not want a heavy meal.

The chicken sausages were well sauté and smeared with just the right amount of cheese. I personally prefer not to have too much of cheese in my meal. Too much of any type of accompaniment ruins the whole meal!

The salad that came as a side was fresh and without any dressing. But it was definitely a good side for the crêpe.

While there was no variety in the kind of food served there, I was thankful that I at least had the option of choosing the type of crêpe I wanted; plain, whole wheat or sun-dried tomato.

On the whole I enjoyed my meal today. The service was good. The waiters were quick to take our orders and bring our orders. They filled our glasses before they got empty and eventually brought the bill without having to make us wait for long. However I do feel that they restaurant could have offered more variety for the customers, instead of just serving different types of crêpes.

Cheerios,
