Le Petit Triangle Cafe: A Little Bit of French Flair in Cleveland
On our Cleveland trip, we decided to visit a small Paris inspired cafe called Le Petit Triangle. This French style cafe offers an authentic European atmosphere complete with European entrees and decor. We were looking forward to dining at a small, local restaurant with specialty food.
The menu offers traditional European breakfast and lunch favorites, including crepes, quiche, stuffed french toast, and specialty soups and sandwiches.
We really wanted the Quiche du Jour, served with a side salad, however, they were out for the day by the time we arrived for lunch.
I decided to go with one of the crepes since they were out of quiche. This was fine with me since I had never tried a crepe before. I ordered the French Dark chocolate, which was absolutely delicious! The whipped cream & strawberries were a nice touch.
I also tried the Triangle Salad, an assortment of mesclun (a mix of French greens), dried cranberries, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds tossed in a raspberry vinaigrette. The salad was great; I would definitely order it again. It would pair well with a quiche or sandwich.
Mike ordered the Simplette Savory Crepe, which was a delicious crepe stuffed with scrambled eggs, cheese, and tomato. You also have the choice of adding a variety of other ingredients such as ham, chicken, or avocado.
I tried it myself and I have to say I was impressed. The buckwheat substitution was a nice healthy bonus. Despite the name, buckwheat is a great option for those following a gluten-free diet. He also loved the taste and texture of the couscous lentil salad, which was included as a side dish.
I really enjoyed this cafe, especially the European style design. I felt as if I was sitting in a cafe in Paris. Even the menu is in French! I felt like I needed to take my French book back out to translate some of the items. Whether you choose a traditional French breakfast with coffee, a light sandwich for lunch, or a sweet crepe with a glass of wine for an after dinner snack; you will fall in love with the Parisian inspired food and look of Le Petit Triangle Cafe.
