also used to describe a dessert served with ice cream. So if you serve crêpes with
ice cream, it is 'crêpes à la mode' .
In general ice cream (particularly vanilla ice cream) goes one with dessert crêpes,
but of course one would not serve it with a non-sweet crêpe (e.g. one with a
cheese or meat filling).
One of the most popular recipes for children (and adults) is Crêpes Suzette served
with vanilla ice cream, which then becomes 'Crêpes Suzette à la Mode'. Of
course, Crêpes Suzette is not served with ice cream in the traditional recipe.
However, kids really like it, so why not?
