Crêpes

Another food you can find pretty easily around Québec is the crêpe. Restaurants will work this pancake-like concoction into every meal. A lot of places will replace it instead of serving pancakes. It is much lighter. You'll find it with many different pairings. For example, during the morning, it is typically served with different fruits, such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and bananas. (and i'm sure you an find more pairs of fruits as well).

For lunch, you can find sandwiches of them. There is one place in the old city that serves up all kinds of versions of it. To build your own, prices vary from how many ingredients you want to add. The one pictured contained cheese, asparagus and ham in a plain crêpe. The restaurant is called Le Casse-Crêpe Breton. (located 1136 rue St-Jean, Quebec City, QC, G1R 1S4) Prices are all under $10 Canadian and you get a lot for your money. The portions are pretty big. The only down fall is that the place is pretty small and you'll usually always have to wait for a table, but at the same time, the food is worth it. They have some of the best crêpes in town. The place also serves soups and salads at reasonable prices as well. The staff will most likely speak English as well as speaking French, seeing how they are in the middle of the city, so that means it's a bit more touristy than other parts of Québec. The dessert crêpes are filled with fruits, jams, or chocolate and are just as good as the other meals.
