La Crêpe Michel Description:
A meal at La Crêpe Michel will remind you of the lovely simplicity of good French food. The owner, Claudie Zamet-Wilcox, who is French, does a terrific job with classics like crusty baguettes, full-bodied country pâté, Brie en croûte and tender crêpes filled with shrimp as well as both bay and sea scallops in a light mushroom velouté. Old standards dominate the list of rotating entrée specials and the dessert selection as well, from boeuf bourguignon to duck à l'orange and chocolate mousse to crème caramel. It all befits the charming setting: La Crêpe Michel is located in an eighteenth-century adobe tucked into an Old Town alley, where the very air is steeped in tradition. The dining room is tiny, but there is also an enclosed garden room---complete with a living tree growing through the roof---that is light and pleasant. And the reasonably priced all-French wine list only enhances the vibe: there's nothing like a bottle of brut rosé or northern Rhône Syrah to accompany your très, très Gallic meal.
