Signature Dishes: Raspberry sweet cheese or gyro crepes at Cream of the Crépe in Uptown Park Ridge

Cream of the Crêpe
8 S. Northwest Highway in Park Ridge
847-720-4246
CreamoftheCrepe.com

Cream of the Crêpe, in the heart of Uptown, will whisk you away to the streets of Paris with their creative crepe, panini, pastry, coffee and smoothie selections, all made to order in minutes using fresh ingredients.

Raspberry cheese crepe

You can actually take your pick between blueberry or raspberry to satisfy your sweet tooth here. Our French-style pancake was filled with a raspberry sweet cheese, berries and graham crackers, then drizzled with a berry sauce with whipped cream on the side. Simply delightful.

Gyro crepe

This French-Greek combination falls into the savory category on the menu. A generous portion of gyro meat is paired with caramelized onion, mozzarella, lettuce, tomato and tzatziki sauce for a unique blend of cultural favorites — but without the guilt of a heavier, traditional gyro.

The southwest chicken salad at @howardstreetinn 

Keeping it light: This is not your normal sports bar menu. Far from it, actually, and it’s easy to fall in love with a new dish each time you stop by. The menu is that robust. Perfect for summer, in our mind, is the southwest chicken salad that has grilled chicken breast topped with fresh pico de gallo, corn and grated cheddar served over a bed of chopped romaine lettuce — all packed in a crispy baked tortilla shell. Throw on a little spicy ranch dressing and pair with a cold draft beer and you’re set. And pretty guilt free. 

And did we mention Howard Street has arguably the best daily drink specials in the area?
