Good Girls Go To Paris Crepes - Detroit, Michigan

This is hands down the new favorite spot of all the ladies I work with. With good reason I will attest. The service is swift and items are made to order. The food is delicious to boot.

Good Girls is an adorable walk up spot just off Woodward on John R, within walking distance to many attractions downtown. There is no seating, so just walk up to place your order with a girl in a french maid outfit (not as tacky as that sounds BTW) and soon you will be treated to a little taste of Paris.

Crêpes are a very thin pancakes which can be stuffed with both sweet and savory fillings. The sweet ones are filled with an assorted variety of fruits, nuts, chocolate, caramel, nutella (happy sigh), butter, brown sugar and whipped topping. Decadent for breakfast, perfect for a late night snack. The Fay is very popular, with bananas, pecans, butter and brown sugar. The Melinda also comes highly recommended by more than one customer with lime, cream cheese and brown sugar. I am more of a Good Girl with nutella and bananas.

The savory options are filled with assorted items such as rich cheeses, black forest ham, bacon, vegetables, and fresh herbs, and are more than filling enough for lunch. The Vera is delicious with its bacon, boursin cheese and spinach. The Ksenia is a favorite of a colleague of mine with it's ham and swiss and another colleague likes the less guilty Allison with hummous, hot sauce, spinach and herbs de provence.

There are 20 types of crêpes on the menu now, all fun and delicious depending on your taste buds. All are named after Torya -the owner's- family and friends, which is sweet. She is a former french teacher and knows her crepes. Many people indulge in a sweet and a savory but one crepe should be plenty.

The prices range from $3-5 for a hot, generously filled crepe about 12 inches in diameter, making this one of the cheapest places in town for lunch. They also offer orange Italian soda, bottled water and fair trade coffee (for only a dollar and the proceeds are donated to a homeless shelter). If this helps you indulge any the savory varieties are low in carbs, I would avoid the banana one with the nutella though or it will haunt you in your dreams.
