Le Comptoir de Mamie Bigoude
Breakfast in bed, or perhaps a bathtub brunch? Imagine indulging in such a quirk at Mamie Bigoude in the city of Tours, where crepes take a playful spin. This charming nook, nestled in Antoine's hometown, is not your typical creperie. Here, creativity melds with tradition, and every bite tells a story.
Mamie Bigoude's interior is a patchwork of nostalgia and fun. Chairs the colour of the sea, tables dressed in gingham, and walls that tell tales through pictures. It is a place that feels like a warm embrace from a cheeky grandmother, whose every corner echoes with laughter and chatters of diners.
Savoury crepes, known as 'galettes', come with a delightful twist – think crisp edges encasing a variety of toppings that are as vibrant and varied as the decor. Each galette is a canvas, with strokes of creamy cheeses, perfectly seasoned meats, and a confetti of fresh vegetables. Whether you choose a classic ham and cheese or venture for something daring, your taste buds are in for an adventure.
The sweet crepes, meanwhile, are poetry on a plate. Sprinkled with sugar and a hint of lemon, or smothered in Nutella, every fold is packed with flavours that dance in your mouth.
So, if you find yourself in Tours, looking for a meal that will fill your belly and warm your soul, make your way to Mamie Bigoude for an experience that will tickle your taste buds and paint a smile on your face.
