La Crêperie Cinq Maisons: Très Classiques Crêpes!

Judith and Fred

Bringing an authentic taste of France – both sweet and savoury – to Richmond…

Before meeting Fred Mokrani, who runs La Crêperie Cinq Maisons on Brewers Lane with his business partner, Judith Cizeikaite, I knew of his track record in the hospitality business at the popular Café de Fred in Kensington. However, it turns out that Fred’s experience is much more celebrated than that!

‘I was a butler for 10 years. I worked in hotels such as Claridges and the Savoy,’ he recalls. ‘After that, I became an Events Manager – and for three years I was responsible for organising the Queen’s Summer Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.’

Inspired by Fred’s French heritage – he grew up in Lyon – he and Judith began planning their crêperie venture two years ago. Having chosen Richmond as the ideal location, they eventually found a suitable premises and opened in June. ‘We love being here, the shop is cosy and we have lovely neighbours,’ says Judith.

The pair are proud that their recipes are authentically French. ‘Judith spent time in Brittany, learning from the locals,’ explains Fred. ‘Our batter is homemade and mixed with love and passion on the premises, the savoury galettes are made with buckwheat flour and are gluten-free and Judith has devised her own vegan options. Personally, I would recommend the Cinq Maisons galette – that has ham or chicken, cheese, spinach, tomato and mushroom – and our signature sweet crêpe is La salade de fruit with banana, honey, berries and fresh mint.’

As well as superb traditional crêpes, Fred and Judith also serve excellent Drury coffee, milkshakes, pastries, fresh juices, salads, soups, panini, cakes and, their own creation, waffles on sticks. ‘You can have them with salted caramel, chocolate or peanut butter – they’re much easier to eat on a stick,’ smiles Judith.

‘We’re also developing other sides of the business,’ adds Fred. ‘We cater for outside events and host birthday party workshops at the shop. The birthday boy or girl invites their friends and we teach them how to make crêpes – it’s great fun.’ With such delicious food and delightful service, the Cinq Maisons is a fantastic addition to Richmond’s foodie scene.
