Does anyone know of a good (pref. non hoity toity) restaurant in the Twin Cities for crepes? (desert preferred, savoy is ok)

There's a stand by Tucci Benucc in the Mall of America, or was the last time I went. Definitely not hoity toity, and the crepes are OK.

Yeah, oddly enough the first thing that came to mind for me too was the MoA crepe shop.

I'm not sure how "good" of a restaurant you want, but IHOP does desert crepes.

Obento-ya's crepes are awesome! Definitely nontraditional though.

Does French Meadow do crepes?

The Original Pancake House in Edina, in the strip mall just south of the Galleria has awesome cherry crepes.

Response by poster: la belle crepe sounds like what I'm looking for, thanks.

(by hoity toity I meant something like a fancy French Restaurant which may well serve kick ass crepes but also would come with dress code, diner expectations etc)

As for the MOA, I thank youse for the suggestion, but frankly the next time I go there will be in chains and shackles. (kinda strange they have a crepe cart there though)
