My son & I ventured downtown last Saturday to check out the Indy Winter Farmers Market that’s now in the historic Indianapolis City Market. The plan was to do a little scouting around and then head to the Torta shop I reviewed the other day. The Torta shop ended up being closed because they are expanding (good news!). We both immediately decided to go back to the City Market and check out 3 Days in Paris.
We had a great experience at Findlay Market’s Crêpe Shop in Cincinnati so we were hoping for something similar. Like the other shop the food is made in front of you and it takes about 5 minutes to make it. Like Cincinnati there was a gathering of people waiting on their food and watching the crêpe makers in action.
We ordered one sweet and one savory crêpe. The sweet being one of the day’s specials ($5.00). It consisted of chocolate, bananas, marshmallows and crushed graham crackers. The savory called “Red Eggs & Bacon” ($6.50) was filled with Egg, Bacon, Havarti, Spinach and Roasted Red Pepper Sauce. I put a little squirt of Siracha sauce on the savory plate just in case it needed a little flavor boost.
One of the things I like about the City Market is the ring of balcony seating on the second floor. It gives a great view of the facility and it’s out of the way of the crowds. We headed upstairs and grabbed a table with a great view.
We were both very happy with our decision to return to the market for lunch. I liked the Indianapolis version of my crêpe better than the one in Cincinnati, mainly because it had more flavor. I did end up using a little Siracha towards the end though. The sweet crêpe was very good and the dark chocolate kept it from being overly sweet.
