Love the Crepes here. It was delish. I got the strawberry cheesecake. She made it so good I should have gotten 2. She is a very sweet Asian girl. Very friendly and polite.
The strawberry cheesecake crepe was sooo good. The nutella oh so good. It was totally different from the regular crepes. It was a great experience from the typical crepe. The actual cheesecake in the crepe. Totally different. It's a must try. -
Review from Sachi M.
Located right in front of Canada Line's City Centre Station, I've seen it a few times in the afternoons. I tried the Tuna Egg today.
It's pretty good... but depends on what you consider "good".
This place serves Crepes as known in Asia, not the authentic European kind. It's folded into a cone (like Temaki). The sauces (Mayonnaise squeezed thin like on Okonomiyaki, and Worcestershire-like sauce) were pretty good when I first bit into it. But the sweetness was what lingered with me after... like it has artificial stuff. (They don't claim not to, so I don't count that against them, though.) Nice touch that they had lettuce.
The crepe itself was chewy and good.
I'll try something sweet next time, and see if I like that better. They have fruity things and ice cream things.
Don't go with a whole bunch of people -- it'll take a long time for them to prepare one for each of you. They have a small counter on the side of the cart to stand at, but there are lots of benches along Granville.
P.S. It took me a while that by "Koi", they mean the "falling-in-love feeling". The pink and the hearts clued me in. I was thinking, "why would they name themselves after the fish Koi and not use pictures of it?" I still wonder how many people know that "koi" can mean what they mean.Listed in: FTR (or Second or Third), Food Carts!
