West Chester is just 40 minutes outside of center city Philadelphia, and I love going into the city to try great restaurants. Beau Monde has been one of my favorites for over ten years. It’s a charming creperie and they serve the most incredibly sweet and savory crepes.
I met a friend for brunch there recently and once again, everything was delicious. I ordered a sausage, swiss and mushroom crepe and all I could say was... YUM!

If you’re ever in Philadelphia and longing for a great crepe, drop by Creperie Beau Monde. Or, if you’d rather just make crepes yourself, here’s a recipe my sister shared with me. Either way... YUM!
Crepes
- 2 cups flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons canola oil (or butter)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Blend ingredients in blender until smooth
Spray 9” nonstick skillet with non-stick cooking spray and heat on medium high
Ladle 1/3 cup of batter into pan and circle to spread to cover the bottom
Cook until lightly brown (1-2 minutes)
Flip and cook the other side
I rarely drink coffee, but I had a cup just to use this “cow creamer”
There is incredible mural art throughout the city
See you in the morning forAM Beauty and AM Style.
