"Crepes and Waffles" is one of my favorite restaurants in Colombia. I loved going there and trying every crepe on the menu. It was a very popular restaurant that has multiple locations in Medellin. We would need to wait for a table in line outside on the weekends, but it was totally worth it. I miss that place a lot!
I was craving crepes for a while, yet never made them at home, so I decided to make some filled with Arequipe. They were decadent, rich, smooth and most definitely addicting. I don't know too many people who don't succumb to the magical powers of Dulce de Leche. These crepes were so easy to make and soooo good! I can't wait to make them again with a savory filling.
Buen provecho!

crepes are pretty good when they're packed with fruit or chocolate, but for me, dulce de leche is the very best filling!

The crepes look so good with that delicious sauce! I love crepes, savory or sweet.

I remember eating a lot of these, but they put rum on top and then flame them...
