Le Creperie de la Paix

Le Creperie de la Paix attempts to bring a little touch of Paris to Mexico City’s fashionable Colonia Condesa neighborhood. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, this quaint little restaurant is the best place in Mexico City to get bistro-style French cuisine. They steer off-course slightly with a few dishes, oddly dedicating a complete section of the menu to Italian pasta dishes. But the majority of the menu is plainly French.

The menu features a full range of breakfast items, including traditional Mexican egg dishes, French omelets, waffles, pancakes, breakfast crepes and, of course, French toast. Don’t forget the croissants.

For lunch and dinner there are some savory crepes, or you can opt for the classic French onion soup, a delicious salad, or variety of other French classics.

On our last two visits, service was very good. The décor is cute and quaint, reminiscent of a comfortable French sidewalk café.

Looking for change of pace from a diet of chilaquiles and tacos? This well-executed menu might be the way to solve that culinary boredom.
