Last week, on a gloriously sunny day, I found myself on an impromptu adventure with my niece and my forever love. Our initial plan was to indulge in some ice cream. But life had a delicious twist in store for us. The ice cream shop was closed, so we decided to give T Swirl Crepe in Williamsburg a try. Despite passing by it often, none of us had ever ventured inside. It was a day full of firsts and sweet surprises.
T Swirl Crèpe has an interesting story that begins far away on the beautiful shores of Japan. They have taken the Western concept of crèpes and transformed it into something uniquely their own. Using 100% gluten-free rice flour batter, they have perfected a crispy, thin, and delightfully chewy crèpe that is perfect for on-the-go indulgence. T Swirl is known for using top-notch ingredients, crafting each crepe into a little piece of art that is handed to you with impressive speed and care. The result is always a consistent, clean, and utterly delicious experience.
What we Ordered at T Swirl Crèpe in Williamsburg
We decided to go all out and ordered a variety of mini crepes, which turned out to be the best choice ever. Each crèpe was a bite-sized explosion of flavor. Our selection included.
- Strawberry Banana: Imagine ripe, succulent strawberries and creamy bananas enveloped in a velvety custard cream, intertwined with a smooth whipped yogurt. This delightful medley is crowned with a sprinkle of glossy chocolate pearls. And a scattering of finely crushed pistachios, adding a touch of elegance and a satisfying crunch.
- Banana Nutella: This classic pairing of sliced, sweet bananas and a generous smear of decadent Nutella is simplicity at its finest. The creamy, rich Nutella harmonizes perfectly with the tender bananas, creating a blissful, indulgent treat.
- Lychee Romantic: This enchanting creation features juicy, fragrant lychees and tangy raspberries, all swirled together with a luxurious rose-flavored custard cream. It is finished with a sprinkle of crushed pistachios, lending a hint of nutty texture and a touch of romance to every bite.
- Crepe Brûlée: Choose from luscious fruits, such as ripe mangoes, perched atop a silky custard cream. The crèpe is then finished with a caramelized top that crackles delightfully with each bite, offering a perfect balance of creamy sweetness and crisp caramelization.
- Wild Berries: This vibrant crèpe is a celebration of summer’s bounty. It combines juicy strawberries, plump blueberries, and tart raspberries. All are layered over a rich custard cream and a dollop of whipped yogurt, creating a refreshing, berry-filled experience.
