Chambord? Black raspberry liqueur? On strawberry crepes... hmm, okay.
Strawberries and raspberries go well together. At any rate, it was a
dessert crepe. You really should try a savoury filled (rolled like a
tortilla) crepe before passing judgement.

Here the most common liquor on crepes is Cointreau

Well how-do-you-do. I haven't seen a bottle up close in a while. No
more tangerines, I guess.

Isn't "bigaradia" the botanical name for bitter oranges?
