The Crepe N Dip in West Chester Twp. is the expansion of a family business located right next door.

Moutazz Abdulhadi opened the Sweet Zone Bakery in 2015 and then he and his business partner decided to expand and opened the Crepe N Dip about two years ago.

“We’re a family business,” Abdulhadi. “We tried to do something new and came up with the crepe idea. Plus my business partner loves crepes.”

The restaurant offers a wide selection of crepes including the signature Crepe N Dip featuring a crepe filled with chocolate custard, banana, strawberry, kiwi, blueberry and topped with Belgian chocolate. The menu also has a banana wrapped crepe topped with Belgian chocolate. There is also a Nutella Crepe and a Dubai Chocolate crepe with kunafa and cream pistachio with Belgian chocolate on top.

The menu includes waffles and mini pancakes with a variety of toppings. According to Abdulhadi the most popular item is the strawberry Dubai cup which is a mix of fresh strawberries, Belgium chocolate, pistachio cream layered in a cup and topped with pistachio crunch and a piece of Belgium chocolate.

“We have all kinds of fresh squeezed juice including apple, pineapple, carrot, orange, lemon, nearly every fruit you can think of,” Abdulhadi said. “Every kind of coffee ... hot or iced ... and we have Turkish coffee, too.”

Abdulhadi and co-owner Mulham Kabab are also working on their own brand of kunafa pistachio cream to sell.

“It is the cream we use in the Dubai chocolate and strawberry Dubai cup,” Abdulhadi said. “We plan to make it, distribute and sell it. Hopefully within the next 3 months.”
