One evening at the restaurant, the Prince of Wales requested a crepe for dessert. Henri raced to the kitchen and prepared a crepe with an orange sauce flambé. He named the sauce Suzette in honor of the beautiful young lady who accompanied the Prince. The rest is history...the Crepe Suzette became the most celebrated French dessert.


The future of the crepe is still wide open, constantly being re-imagined in kitchens around the world, and especially in Santa Monica. For 23 years, Acadie Hand Crafted French Crepes has taken their expertise and experience to infuse the history of the crepe into its future.
