These crepes were a disaster! The filling was runny, and the crepes were too thick and gummy. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making these crepes again.

I had a hard time getting the crepes to cook evenly. Some of them were overcooked, while others were still undercooked. I think I need to practice making crepes a few more times before I try this recipe again.

These crepes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added more cheese to the filling. Otherwise, they were easy to make and pretty good.

These crepes were delicious! The crepes were thin and delicate, and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I especially loved the addition of the Gruyère cheese, which gave the crepes a nice nutty flavor. I will definitely be making these crepes again
