Lady M Confections

This place has a great concept for Dessert. 70-80 crepes stacked up high with filling in the middle to create a Crepe Cake. It was amazing, but at $75 bucks for a whole cake it was a bit expensive, but worth the experience. You can get it by the slice too.

I had been a devoted lady M customer for years. Every year, my husband orders a mille crepe for my birthday. The cake is great. However, my experience at the cafe was very disappointing. First, there are the rules. 45 min max, no standing around, no photo, etc. My friends were asked to order 3 times in 10 min, and when she said that she wishes to wait a couple minutes, she was given a nasty look. It's a Tuesday afternoon! The people there forget that when a customer goes to lady M for a piece of cake, they are looking to enjoy the cake and the experience. No one will pay almost $10 for a piece of cake PLUS 18% tip for some flour and sugar! I will look for my birthday cake somewhere else!

This is my answer to the truly absurd review ""Stroller Abuse"" by some pretentious arriviste name marydawnj.

She's right, about the the cakes, they are heavenly, I was there Thanksgiving week with a friend and we sampled their gateau au chocolat and the Mille Crepes Cake. The staff was lovely and professional. And the room bright and clean?its aesthetic is minimal without being stark. It was lovely, perhaps because all patrons were adults.

As for marydawnj's experience: It's apparent that Mrs. j is a Bullying mother, the kind ill-bred wretch who thinks her Baby Einstein or Mozart is the light of the world and we should treat it like the young Buddha she incarnates. This type of mother delights in having her whelping Brat in the midst of grown people. She doesn't understand that Babies are not welcome everywhere despite her claim that her delicious daughter is ""received"" like a princess by certain Uptown and Downtown establishments whose names she drops not for reference but to tell us her adoring husband has given her a Platinum Card.

I would not blame the staff of Lady M. Had marydawnj removed her Chanel sunglasses, she might have seen the sign outside the Boutique that asks you not bring in strollers. Why, would such a sign exist? Perhaps because the space is timy, with a single aisle that both staff and customers must navigate. There is no space between tables for even a folded carriage?unless you wanted to inconvience the people sitting at the next table.

In closing I'd say, that Lady M has no problem with babies, just ill-bred, conceited, ignorant mothers.
