A couple of months ago I promised a few people I would try their products and write a few thoughts about them, and then life got in the way just a little bit and all of a sudden that was quite a while ago and I still haven’t written anything…  I’m sorry!!  The thing is, everything I tried was amazing and so worth writing about, so time delay or no time delay I’m going to get these out!!

First up, I had a crepe…  It was a little crispy on the edges and lovely and soft in the middle.  It had sweet, warm strawberries and it had oozing melted milk chocolate.  It was messy, it was mouthwatering and it was bliss.  Actual bliss.  The sign of a good crepe is when your fiancé looks at you with two raised eyebrows and retorts ‘Are you kidding…?  You have a chocolate smile across your face!?’  And when you reluctantly give it to him to finish he gets chocolate everywhere…  Including on his nose.

I know what you’re thinking, ‘Where did this piece of crepe magic come from?  I need to get me one of those babies!’  Well it came from Little Brittany Creperie, regulars at many farmers markets across Kent, and further afield, including West Malling and Tonbridge.  Each crepe is made fresh to order and you can choose from approximately 1000 savoury and sweet options (slight exaggeration, but if you’re an indecisive person then it might be worth leaving yourself a few extra minutes..).

It’s hard to believe but it is a little bit by luck that we are able to enjoy Little Brittany Creperie each month!  Vicky, the brains behind the operation, used to travel a lot to faraway, exotic places like Thailand, and used to sell industrial heating tubes, of all the exciting things to sell!  One day she was wandering around a local market and there was a little stall selling French crepes with a ‘For Sale’ sign.  Having travelled a lot to France and owning property over there it made sense, and the rest, as they say, is history!  The gentleman selling his business taught Victoria his trade and from then on she has been bringing French crepes to the masses.  Her business has continued to grow, now running from two units and being hired for weddings and other big events.  Victoria still travels to France regularly and brings back classic French produce which is also sold on her stall.

So if you’re looking for something delicious to start your day, or maybe something delicious for lunch, or even just elevenses then head over!  I’ve had  one with cheese, mushrooms and garlic oil before too and seriously, it doesn’t take long to chomp down, it’s that good.  Find out more direct from the source, on their website or on Twitter @LitBritCreperie
