Farmers Market standout opens Anita’s

Chef Anita Ross, known for her fabulous crepes at the Ballard Farmers Market, has opened Anita’s, a new restaurant on Leary near 8th Avenue. We have yet to give it a try, but My Ballard reader Robert sent us a review.

“We had the chantrelle crepe and the jambon crepe for dinner,” he writes. “Although made in the traditional French style with buckwheat flour the crepes were light and fluffy. The fillings were savory, well seasoned…. Total bill for two dinner crepes, two dessert crepes and two glasses of wine: $54. Overall impression: small, elegant, tasty. We’ll be back.” We drove by on Saturday mid-morning — just a few days after opening — and Anita’s had quite the crowd inside. If you go, let us know your impressions in comments below.
