Jean-Luc Fanny, who introduced Café L'Aube to South Street in 2008, has opened his second location, at 1631 Wallace Street (corner of 17th). The new location, which debuted quietly late last week, is larger than the Ivory Coast native's first coffee shop/creperie, but it does offer the same menu (only difference they do dense, chewy Liège-style waffles here instead of lighter Brussels-style) and same hours (Mon.-Thu., 7:30 a.m.-7 p.m.; Fri., 7:30 a.m.-8 p.m.; Sat., 8 a.m.-8 p.m.; Sun., 8:30 a.m.-6 p.m.). Check out the full menu after the jump. Fanny, who processes his own coffee beans at a facility in South Philly, is offering both dark and medium roasts in addition to espresso here at this address.
