Thanks for stopping to read mmm-yoso!!! We (Kirk, Ed(from Yuma) and Cathy) try to keep things interesting, with musings about meals enjoyed in San Diego and elsewhere in the USA and world. Today is a quick post about a worldwide chain that has one location in San Diego.
Earlier this year, I wrote about the places to eat at Mitsuwa Marketplace. In 2013, I wrote about a limited pop up, Marion Crépes, which was located in the center court. This chain, with worldwide locations, began in 1976 in Harajuku Japan.
The now permanent location of Marion Crépes has taken over the former bookstore and Matcha Love location, just to the right of the entrance.
Pricing, descriptions and beautiful Sampuru ('sample', waxy, fake food) are all available to help you decide on a snack or meal.
Order, pay and your crepe is made in an open kitchen style area. The sweet batter is unique and goes well with savory as well as the sweet crepes.
Yes, I said savory. This tuna and cheese crepe ($6.25) hit the spot.,
As did this quite filling turkey and cheese ($7.50) meal.
The Nutella-strawberry dessert crepe ($5) was a nice treat that The Mister and I shared.
All in all, another good selection for a quick lunch or snack in the Mitsuwa Food Court.
Marion Crepes 4240 Kearney Mesa Road (Hawthorne Center, inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace) San Diego 92111 (858) 292-5200 Website Open daily 9 am-8:30 pm
It's good that they now have an actual spot instead of the seasonal booth. I can finally try their crepes (eventually). Looking forward to trying something savory rather than sweet.

It's another choice of something to eat while in the store or food court for those who want something non-Japanese or a different sweet, cc. Chicken and shrimp are the other savories, and the cream cheese-fruit crepes are nice.
