Michael Hepworth<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n CREPEMAKER CATERING<\/p>\n The City of Lights and Street Food Carts<\/span><\/p>\n The Crepes of Paris Reimagined<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By Kay\u00a0Schroeder<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yorba Linda, CA(<\/span>Perfect Meal Today)6\/7\/16\/–In the 1860\u2019s Paris streets and monuments were illuminated by 56,000 gas lamps; thus the sobriquet, \u201cLa Ville Lumiere\u201d, The City of Lights. The Parisian street carts sold what is now considered by many to be the traditional sugar filled crepe.<\/p>\n Although these street cart crepes served as their inspiration, CrepeMaker owners Christopher Hoffman and Maria Sune wanted to create crepes that not only satisfied the customer\u2019s appetite but would also deliver crepes that were made with the freshest ingredients, and were conducive to a healthy diet.\u00a0\u00a0 Staying true to the street cart\u2019s origin, Christopher and Maria used their life savings of $10,000, took a leap of faith, and began selling crepes on the downtown streets of Miami in 1992. Soon the explosion of demand for their crepes set off an expansion throughout Florida and other states including California in 2007 and most recently, Puerto Rico, making CrepeMaker the largest crepe business in the United States.<\/p>\n Friday, June 3 was graduation day for the seniors at Newport Coast, Sage Hill High School. Following the graduation ceremony, the parents of one lucky graduate hosted a backyard party for friends and family with CrepeMaker as the caterer. Although the temperature that day was 81, the temperature had cooled down considerably by the 4:30 p.m. party.<\/p>\n Jack, the chef on duty, arrived with all the necessary equipment and ingredients, ready to prepare the crepes, special to order. The celebration mood was in full gear as the guests lined up to peruse the menu and complete the difficult task of deciding which crepe to have. Here are eye-popping examples of why that task proved to be so daunting:<\/p>\n Caesar Chicken or Steak:<\/strong> Marinated Chicken Breast or Steak, Melted Mozzarella Cheese with Portabella Mushrooms, Vine Ripe Tomatoes, Romaine Lettuce and CM Special Caesar Dressing<\/em><\/p>\n Steak Milanese:<\/strong> Marinated Steak, Virginia Baked Ham, Sweet Red Onion, Melted Cheddar Cheese, Vine
