The "www.crepesandwaffles.com" in the corner was totally accidental. I should attempt to sell this to C&W as an advertisement.
Every place has its chain restaurants, and one of Colombia's is called Crepes and Waffles. It is a genius excellent invention.
In 1980, two university students created the idea of Crepes and Waffles as their thesis. The university rejected it and they failed. Today they are billionaires.
It's in the style of a French creperie: simple decorations, nice dim lighting, cozy feel. They have awesome food. Every kind of crepe imaginable, breakfast to dessert (OH MY GOD THE DESSERTS.), Mexican, vegetarian, you name it. And then tons of other kinds of awesome food, like juices and salads and soups and sandwiches and, yes, waffles. AND an ice cream bar. With flavors like arequipe (which is basically caramel) and mora (a delicious fruit which tastes like a mix between a blackberry and a raspberry).
And by US standards (especially for the quality you're getting) it's cheap as hell.
Best part of all, though: Crepes and Waffles hires only single mothers. I find this to be a very creative way of addressing and solving social problems as well as advancing society. It is a humbling thing to know that the woman who is serving you is using that money to support herself and her children alone.
