There is no reason to prefer non-stick for crepes. You might note that
there are
no non-stick commercial crepe makers. All I do on my commercial crepe
makers is
use clarified butter, and there is never the slightest sticking or
build-up.

However, Non stick woks do not.

I would point out that no less a chef than Ming Tsai often uses a
non-stick wok.


FoodTV personalities cook whatever and with whatever their sponsors
(the people who pay them) mandate. Professional kitchens are nothing
like FoodTV cartoon kitchens.


My wife is a working cook (her management calls her a "chef" but she
calls herself a cook) and always gets a laugh when she see TV chefs
wearing kitchen-unsuitable "chef costumes."
Especially those with long and wide sleeves designed to pick up
everything they flap against.
