Millie & Pepper's Cuban Crepe
Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | April 26, 2025
We’re all about lunch we can take on the go, and the cult-favorite Cuban crepe from Millie & Pepper in Traverse City is our new go-to! Inspired by the eponymous sandwich, this street-style crepe stacks house-roasted mojo pork—seasoned with cumin, oregano, lime, and orange juice—with McClure’s spicy pickles, a mild and melty blend of gruyere and Jarlsberg cheeses, prosciutto cotto (a delicate Italian ham), and a special house mustard sauce. Folded into a scratch-made buckwheat crepe and griddled until crispy, this flavor-packed handheld is everything we love about a savory smorgasbord in portable form. If you’ve got a hand to spare, be sure to pair one with a cup of soup or a crisp IPA from the café’s full bar! Get your hands on one ($14.50) at Millie & Pepper (120 S. Union St.) in Traverse City. millieandpepper.com
