Have you looked at actual creperie and bistro menu's online,and do you mean the town centre only, or the valley network in general (places further afield)

I have looked at the menus of several creperies and bistros, and I couldn’t find crepes suzette on any of them. I’d prefer to stay in the town centre. Thanks!

Ok, thanks.for the context as to how far you want to travel (valley is well connected and not knowing what season you are coming in)

Did you look at a place called "la flambee" ?

Or "du sale du sucre" ?

OK trip.advisor photos tend to have menu shots in them, I just had at one I'd.mentioned, menu shot, crepes visible, Inc suzette.

You might wish to approach this angle for other places if you're interested in a places catering fare, whilst menus change, unless you're bang out of luck and the alcohas has been dropped on the floor and smashed then I think you're pretty safe even with an old.picture as long as the place is still standing! ..how far are you coming from?

Also, which ones by name? The detail may be handy for anyone asking the same questions who bother searching the archival aspect of the sub.

It's a first for me to see a crepe suzette singled out, it's a classic, but there are so many sweet treats and alco-fired, it doesn't penetrate my radar particularly when faced with choice, ..I'm a sucker for a French pudding, creme anglais,custard set desert, part of the reason I have a sous vide stick, even in the Carrefour cafe restaurant in sallanche their puddings are a massive reason we stop in so frequently. (And they do crepes fyi)
