\"theWe have been to The Working Capitol, a working space, several times to work (because of free Wi-Fi<\/strong>, 2 electrical sockets, and cheap drinks) but didn’t feel the need to write about it because it didn’t serve savory food. What’s the point of writing about a cafe that gets its cakes from a supplier?<\/p>\n

But now the Working Capitol has a new tenant, the Daily Roundup, and they sell crepes, both savory and sweet, and rather good crepes they were. I remember visiting a quaint French town and all the restaurants in the town sold only crepes. My memory may be inaccurate, but Working Capitol’s crepes were as good as the French town’s.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"dailyThe savory crepes use buckwheat flour from Brittany. The compl\u00e8te<\/strong> ($12, above) is basically an adaptation of ham-egg-cheese sandwich: there were some parts that were way too salty, but for most areas, it was tasty. The Scottish smoked salmon<\/strong> ($14, below) with homemade cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche was good value and wholesome.<\/p>\n

\"theThe sweet crepe uses artisanal butter by Jean-Yves Bordier. The berries<\/strong> crepe ($12 + $4 ice cream, below) was more than satisfactory.<\/p>\n

\"dailyThe apple drummer<\/strong> ($8 + $4 ice cream, below), supplied by their sister restaurant, Black Swan<\/a>, was super duper delicious, like the Chinese New Year’s pineapple tart, inside still steaming. At first, I was piqued that the ice cream cost so much, but when I ate it, it was top quality ice cream, absolutely worth its price. Besides, it is essential to add ice cream to an apple-tart-like dessert.<\/p>\n

\"workingThey don’t serve water here, because the cafe functions mostly as a working space, but the drinks are inexpensive and pretty delicious. Mineral water goes for $5\/$8. The coffee<\/strong> by Papa Palheta was terrible on both occasions I had it: both cold brew<\/strong> and long black<\/strong> were sour as catpiss. They have cocktails<\/strong> (from $14), wines<\/strong>, and cold press juices<\/strong>, which was $5 the first time I was there but has increased to $7. I highly recommend the homemade ginger beer with honey<\/strong> ($7), which gingery heat burned all the way from my tongue to my stomach. Awesomeness.<\/p>\n
