Visiting France for Breakfast

I've thought long and hard(30 minutes) over divulging this little delicious secret but after serious deliberation I have decided my readers have been so good to me you should be entitled to everything that I am lucky enough to enjoy.

In comes, Le Folie - a little obscure restaurant located on the quiet end of Espanola Way. This little spot, which had one chef, one waitress and which seats 25 people on a good day is a little diamond in the rough here known only by a distinct few.

When I go I always order the "Make your Own" crepe for breakfast with the following: Sliced potato, Rosette de Lyon(French Dry Sausage), and Roquefort Cheese(sheeps milk blue cheese from the south of France), with one sunny-side up egg on top(which you can also have them put inside if you prefer). This crepe is made with Buckwheat Flour and is served with Mesclun and Tomato salad and let me just say is a feast for the senses. So delicate and refined as it hits your mouth and then followed by a fresh squeezed orange juice, served in a wine glass, which I love.

I like to go early in the morning when they are still pulling out chairs and turning on the music, the less people the better. It really does feel like you are sitting in a little cafe in Europe.

Just take a bite and imagine you're somewhere else...

Enjoy.

I don't think I have ever put pen to paper ad lib style like I am now. I have always put thought into what I was going to write. Always ...
