Mango Crepe @ SM's Roadhouse Cafe


I’ve tasted the best mango crepe here at Roadhouse Cafe at SM City Davao. Though there are lots of good food here, for dessert - i go for mango crepe. It’s tasteful and one order could be shared by three … one part is good enough to end either a lunch or a dinner in this cozy place. The area is spacious where there is enough space for everybody. Though a public place, a group could dine and at the same time talk serious matters or otherwise. The setting was made in such a way that each table is not that close with each other thus giving a little privacy. Service is also good as well as the courses.
And because i fell in love with the crepe i tried looking for recipe (not from roadhouse cafe) but you can try it and am sharing you this ….
Crepes:
Pack of Magnolia pancake mix (I tried Pillsbury before, they didn’t turn out right)
(Use milk instead of water, and butter instead of oil. Make sure the batter is thinner by adding more milk)
Cream filling:
Mix butter, sugar, and cream in a double boiler until smooth
(Since I was in a hurry, I just cooked everything over low fire using a Teflon flat bottom griddle. Proportion is 1T butter + 2 T sugar + 1/4 cup cream)
Filling; Diced mangoes (make sure these are sweet by smelling the base, where the stem goes. It should smell sweet, not sour. Some mangoes are sweet in spite of the pale or greenish color). You may also use sliced bananas (lakatan variety, again, make sure these are sweet).
Directions:
1. Fry pancakes in a little butter on flat bottom griddle. Make sure to spread out the batter thinly so that it will look and feel like real crepes.
2. Spread a little cream mixture on the crepe.
3. Put as many mangoes as you wish.
4. Fold the crepe.
5. Top with scoop of vanilla ice cream (mango flavor will do).
7. Drizzle with chocolate syrup.
8. Enjoy
