Jeanluc was born and raised in Paris, France where he learned the ancient crêpe recipe that goes back generations. The batters he uses are as organic as possible and made with local ingredients. The flour he uses is obtained from Great River Organic Milling in Fountain City, WI. The eggs and milk that go into the crêpes are also organic and purchased locally.
In France, Jeanluc was a musician by trade, but he moved to Wisconsin after his wife Teri decided she wanted to reconnect with her family. Jeanluc was 50 when they moved from France to Wisconsin. He wasn't up for starting up another music career, so he started his crêpe business.

Be sure to check out his website for more information. You can also like Jeanluc on Facebook for updates on where else he is setting up shop. For now you can be sure to find the Crepe man at the Winona Farmer's Market every Saturday.
Check out this video of Jeanluc's interview at the market.
