This past Wednesday I headed over to the parking lot on the corner of Dupont and Teller for another Food Truck Brigade meet-up.
Wednesday was also the day I got my allergy test results back and I wasn’t quite sure if I was going to start my gluten free diet that day or not. Since I hadn’t eat yet, by the time lunch rolled around, I could start my new diet that day. However, I kinda wanted to cheat and start on Monday.
We walked around a checked out all the trucks that were there: Dan Dan BBQ, The Lime Truck, Barcelano On The Go, Dos Chinos, the same cupcake truck, a Chimichurri truck, and Crepes Bonaparte.
Crepes Bonaparte intrigued me the most and after I heard they made it pretty far on that Food Truck show (we don’t have cable so I never got to see it), I jumped on the bandwagon, so to speak, and hoped in line.
I felt a little guilty, but I figured I could start being Gluten Free on Thursday. That was until I read their menu…
I believe this was God’s was of saying, “Seriously Allison? Start today!” Sign taken, God. Thanks!
It wasn’t hard for me to decide what to order…
I’m on a serious Caprese salad kick right now and tomatoes are an “acceptable food”, YAY! Needless to say, I ordered the Caprese Savory Crepe. Gluten Free, of course.
They had a special: 1 Savory Crepe & 1 Nutella Crepe for $7.99, so I also ordered the Nutella Crepe in gluten free.
The problem with taking pictures of crepes is they are only mildly more exciting than a burrito. But tastier, if you ask me. It’s been awhile since I’ve had a crepe, but I really couldn’t tell they were gluten free.
My co-worker, Yolanda, and her husband also ordered from Crepes Bonaparte. Yolanda had the In Da Club (Bacon, Mozzarella, Avocado and tomato) without the tomato.
And her husband, Ruben, ordered the Southwestern Spice (Spicy Chipotle Chicken, Cheddar, Grilled Onion & Bell Pepper).
Yolanda wasn’t quite sure what to expect and was pleasantly surprised and, Ruben could not stop raving about his crepe.
I’ve never had bad service as a Food Truck and found Crepes Bonaparte to be especially friendly.
I love that they had uniforms and dressed the part with the hats and scarf/ties.
Next week I’m meeting a fellow Weddingbee blogger, Mrs Paisley, and I secretly hope Crepes Bonaparte is there again :)

omg. NOM NOM NOM. I loved the one crepe I had in my life (nutella) and so I would CLEARLY love to go to this truck and try even more!!! Come on, food trucks in Indy!!!
I just had dinner and now my mouth is watering for those crepes.
YUM! Looks awesome!
Oh my goodness, I am SO jealous that you were able to eat one of their crepes! I was reading the menu and immediately thought the caprese one would be my choice. However, I am now drooling at the thought of a spicy apple bottom crepe...omg!
mmm, yum. they are one of the food trucks on my list to try out :) caprese sounds so good for the hot weather we're having.
LA Food trucks, "First Friday" was recently featured on a Food Network show called "America's Best" and many of these food trucks were on it (The Lime truck, Nom Nom, etc). I totally thought of you!
OMG those crepes look delicious! I wish I worked close enough to hit up the food trucks on my lunch... I did go to Angels Stadium and back from RSM once, maybe I should try it!
