New independent restaurant coming to The Greene
BEAVERCREEK — A new restaurant called That Crepe Place is scheduled to open May 1 at 4474 Glengarry Drive at The Greene.
The restaurant — located next to Coldstone Creamery near the center’s movie theaters — will serve a variety of crepes, both savory and sweet, according to its owner. Rodney Long of Mason. Long is a former employee of Procter & Gamble who owned a barbecue restaurant in Milford and has catered barbecue-related events.
“I have a passion for managing businesses, and I have a passion for the food industry,” Long said. He developed the concept for That Crepe Place, and hopes to open several more stores in the region in the coming year.
Long said he was looking for something healthy and distinctive that customers could eat while talking around The Greene, if desired. The hand-held crepes “will be similar to what you would get in Paris,” he said. Savory crepes will include choices such as the Mediterranean — with chicken, feta cheese, sweet pequillo peppers and spinach topped with a light herb aioli — and a Pesto Shrimp crepe. Sweet crepe options will include a Banana Nutella, utilizing the chocolate-hazelnut spread popular in Europe, and the Apple Pie crepe. The restaurant will also serve soups and salads, Long said.
That Crepe Place will seat 12 to 15, and will open with 12 to 15 employees, Long said. It will open at 11 a.m. seven days a week.
The restaurant’s web site, www.thatcrepeplace.com, is under construction.

TweetRestaurant offers free wings if any player drops 30 points in NCAA
The Barleycorn’s bar and restaurant at 6204 Wilmington Pike in the Sugarcreek Plaza has rolled out an interesting March Madness offer: whenever (or if ever) a player in an NCAA tournament game scores 30 points or more, everyone in the restaurant will receive free boneless chicken wings — to be specific, a 10-ounce order of wings (about a dozen) that regularly sells for $6.95 on the restaurant’s menu. There is a limit of one order per person, and the offer is good every time any player scores 30 points, according to Rick Heil, the local Barleycorn’s owner-operator.
