Marseille, France is for sure famous for it’s port, known as the Vieux Port, and for the clear blue Sea. I’m a regular visitor to France, especially to Marseille, know the area almost by heart and am nowadays looking at things / places to share with other visitors some places where they should / should not go to while holidaying in this city.
In one of my old articles, I pointed out a really must go-to restaurant but which I was lately disappointed with the kind of service and quality of the food. Thing is that it wasn’t just a one off experience so this made me believe it was not just a coincidence. Anyway, this time I want to share with you my experience at this other restaurant, which is close to the one I just mentioned.
I was again in Marseille last October and chose to dine at the Les Mouettes Restaurant. Well, to be precise, I wasn’t really looking at dining there but just felt like having something good for dessert and was looking for a good crepes. So I decided to try it out. Setup was good and the first impression was good too. It was still bit early evening so most of the waiters/waitresses were still preparing for dinner. However, the place was open just the same and was serving light snacks, coffee, dessert, etc …
After my bad experience at this other restaurant, namely Equinox, I’m always looking at some other places to substitute it and make up for the disappointment. I’m a crepes lover so won’t stop looking for something before I manage to find someone that can at least prepare them as good as the other used to do once! 
So, to begin with, I sat down outside and waited for someone to come and check what I wanted …… nothing, a waiter passed a number of times but never stopped to check what I wanted. At one time, a man with his child came over and stayed there waiting too. After some time, he decided to get up and go to the bar to order. In just a couple of minutes, the waited came with the order and left again, without checking on me!!! After approx 5 minutes, I got fed up and went to the bar too. As soon as I arrived and tried to order, the barman asked me to go back to my place as the waiter will come over …. yeah, was getting bit frustrated!
To cut it short, then the waiter came and order a Crepes, a Volcan! It didn’t take much long to get it than and looked ……. normal. It was ok but still can’t compete to what I used to have at this other restaurant. It’s a pity that the owners of this other place doesn’t bother much about this change!
If I had to go again and have a crepes at the Les Mouettes Restaurant in Marseille? No, I won’t … not worth the money for me!
