Historic Petunias in the French Qtr boast “World’s Largest” Crepes

By Written by Tracy Gielbert on January 4th, 2010

Eat a ”world’s largest” filled crepe here at the oldy worldy Petunia’s in the French Quarter. It will certainly set you up for the rest of the afternoon while you take a leisurely afternoon stroll through the array of galleries, boutiques and other New Orlean’s attractions.

This fabulous 1830′s Creole townhouse serves breakfast, lunch and dinner in the old double parlour with all original details and woodwork. Relax in the “Big Easy” and take a step back in time.

Petunia’s has all the Creole and Cajun fave’s – gumbo, jumbalaya, shrimp creole, crawfish etoufee and po-boys and have a full bar and cocktails. The crepes certainly seem to be the speciality – sweet and savory. Try the St. Francis crepe for some French-New Orleans flavor – shrimp, crabmeat, ratatouille and cheese sauce – simply delectable.
