I wonder how the turtle liked being used as a chair...hehe
That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the word \"crepe\".

I'm still stuck on the fact that there is an entire restaurant that serves just crepes!
*drool*
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-488475-100x100.png\")
@TinkishDelight: There used to be one in Santa Cruz, The Crepe Place. It's been years though; I hope they are still there.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/css/images/default.gif\")
@TinkishDelight: There's a place called Crepe Works in the mall where I live, they also serve nothing but crepes. They have all those normal varieties, but you can also get like the BLT crepe, or the Turkey Club crepe and weird lunch items like that.

Anyone in Northern VA should head to Bread and Chocolate in Old Town Alexandria. Great omelets and crepes.
I really would like a crepe now. :)
@TinkishDelight: There's a crepe restaurant in Champaign, IL called \"The Creperie\" or something similar.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-929652-100x100.png\")
@TinkishDelight: There's a kiosk type restaurant in the Natick (MA) Mall that just does crepes. It's INCREDIBLE.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/mt-static/support/assets_c/userpics/userpic-81067-100x100.png\")
@TinkishDelight: There used to be a crepe place in the food court at the mall near my house. I was very disappointed when they went out of business. Now it's a Hot Dog on a Stick.
@TinkishDelight: I think French zombies crave \"creeeeeeepes...\"
@TinkishDelight: Where in MD are you? Cause here's one in Gaithersburg: [www.crepes-a-gogo.com] and here's one in Baltimore: [www.crepedujour.com] and here's one in Ocean City: [www.crepedujour.com] and here's one in Baltimore at Inner Harbor: [www.southbaltimore.com]

@pecan 3.14159265: I'm sorry; I hate to pick on people I like for misusing the English language, but anytime I see the shortened version of \"because\" (\"cause\") without a leading apostrophe it's like fingernails on a chalkboard for me. Please, if you're going to use the word, include an apostrophe 'cause it needs one...
Thanks and sorry.
@DreamTheEndless: Death's little brother: Misspellings get on my nerves so I get it. But it's the Internet. So I'm going to keep using cause without an apostrophe.
@pecan 3.14159265: I'm in Chevy Chase, but the one in Kentlands is nowhere from my job. Life changing. If I could heart you again I would!
@TinkishDelight: NONONONONONONO!!!
The place in Kentlands is mediocre at best. IF you are hard up for a crepe, it will do; if you want a good crepe, it won't.
@UCLAri: Isn't there four places? There's the Crepe Hut, on third.There's Crepes-R-Us on third too. You got Put-Your-Crepe-There? That's on third. Swing Low, Sweet Crepe... Matter of fact,they're all in the same complex; it's the crepe complex on third.
@GitEmSteveDave_IsWaving: This comment was the highlight of my day. I am still chuckling to myself and getting weird looks from coworkers.
@UCLAri: Unfortunately I'm in foodie-unfriendly Maryland.
*sigh*
At least we have the Top Chef fave (though I don't think I'd venture to Frederick for him)

@TinkishDelight: Please do! I trecked out there for Restaurant Week, and it was delicious. Excellent service, even better food. I want to go again during non-restaurant week. I dream of being able to afford the $120 21-course tasting menu.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-11864-100x100.png\")
I wonder how it compares to those 1,000 yen ($10) slaps you can pay for over in Japan.
@DickMcVengeance: I hear that in Japan you can buy crepes in vending machines, next to the soiled panties.
@h3llc4t has a slow work day: Well, it's at a maid cafe, where you're already paying $7 for a cup of coffee or the like.
IMHO \"right here\" is always the best place to do it.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/mt-static/support/assets_c/userpics/userpic-450305-100x100.png\")
Totally worth it just for the crepe-y pun
Who does the spanking? that may be the best deal ever. Also can I give the spanking to somebody else.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-414437-100x100.png\")
I have heard that their food tastes like crepe, though.

@TinkishDelight: Oh, but if you make it to Cape Cod, check out The Outer Crepe in Provincetown!
I couldn't believe it myself, but there it was. With vegan crepes, even.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/mt-static/support/assets_c/userpics/userpic-943594-100x100.png\")
@veg-o-matic: VEGAN crepes in a restaurant? Unheard of! Provincetown. I am making a note. This is me. Notemaking. Hooray. Not that I plan to make it to Cape Cod anytime soon, but if I ever do...Oh yeah.
@subtlefrog: I know! Whee!
I never really had many crepes pre-veganism, so I had nothing to compare them to, but I enjoyed them.
Some reviews from veg*ns: [www.vegguide.org]
[www.happycow.net]
Provincetown is just super-duper as well so keep it in mind for your vacationing needs! There used to be another place called Tofu A-Go-Go, but they moved out here to Western Mass and promptly A-Went-Went out of business.
@veg-o-matic: I heart happycow. I use them anytime I go somewhere new to check out the food potential (or to know if I should pack a lot of Clif bars).
Western Mass? For some reason, I had it in mind that you were somewhere out west. I have no idea why.
But thanks for the tip - if and when I ever get a vacation. Which seems like, well...never. But it will have to be one day, right? Provincetown!
PS love the pun.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-260025-100x100.png\")
I checked the Yelp pages of both locations and no one has reported actually ordering the spanking. Hopefully all the publicity this has gotten today will result in someone actually ordering it and telling the tale.
@AbsoluteIrrelevance: I'm going to the city next weekend and will make a special trip to Oakland to order a \"Las Vegas.\" I'll report back to Consumerist.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-681073-100x100.png\")
But the question is... Do they serve these to go? I prefer my spankings and crepes in the comfort of my own home.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-762676-100x100.png\")
...I went out on the town once with my cousin-in-law and a buddy of his that I didn't know before. Guy was hilarious...in the way that some guy that has a good sense of humor that gets drunk and goofily prances about the dance floor is hilarious.
...and when we went for breakfast at I think Perkins at like 2:00 in the morning, he was still going strong. Looked our not-really-hot waitress straight in the eyes and dryly ordered \"pancakes, coffee, and a spanking.\"
The time and place and waitress was right, and it was funny as hell. Once in a while I bust that line out myself.
The comments on this thread are making my afternoon tolerable. :-)
This place is like 4 or 5 blocks from my office, I should head over there and see if I can really get a spanking.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-219805-100x100.png\")
@kaplanfx: report back your findings. I'm sure we'd all love to see a follow-up story posted on the front page.
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-1034061-100x100.png\")
Meg, succulent sauces, affordable spankings: the above comments are lacking in the appropriate level of enthusiasm.
This spanking better be more than a couple half-hearted smacks by a mildly embarrassed waitress. For $20 I expect to be thoroughly walloped by Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS.
I work at a creperie. We do not have spankings (yet) but we do have Nutella ;)
@Applekid:
Ahhh!!! I didn't think of that! So totally true, though. I wish Coffee of Doom were real... that would be truly epic.
Can I have them hold the spanking or get additional spanking on the side?
It's another SF Bay Area place trying to be \"edgy.\"
Yawn.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/mt-static/support/assets_c/userpics/userpic-53958-100x100.png\")
$20, same as in town, why?
I'm just curious - does the extra $20 go into the till or straight into the tip jar?
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-159466-100x100.png\")
Is it a sexual spanking or an angry spanking? I assume sexual since it's Las Vegas, but I suppose it could be of the angry sort. If it is sexual, look out for prostitution charges! Then again, if you're the kind of person that wants an angry spanking, well, I'd say you have a bit of a sex fetish huh?
![\"user-pic\"](\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-1504-100x100.png\")
How does one determine the tip on a spanking?
Always giving Vegas a bad name.
I've got one: the OAKLAND-any crepe and a massengil douche for $25 bucks.
I would think that the \"Las Vegas\" would be \"Any crepe with a 'Happy Ending'! \"
of course, for some, a spanking and a happy ending may be the same thing.
![\"user-pic\"](\"/mt-static/support/assets_c/userpics/userpic-1224797-100x100.png\")
is the spanking done bare-handed or being that it's at a restaurant, would they use a spatula? :-|

That's crepe-y

@mdoublej:
Ooo -- WIN!
@mdoublej: They'll get their just desserts.

I'm so easily amused :(
