All of the food in Morocco is exceptional, a wonderful contrast of savory and sweet, carefully paired. Even breakfast in Morocco was something special. Breakfast always had a bit of a continental leaning but with Moroccan specialties, like this pancake. I'll never forget the first time I tried Beghrir, on the rooftop patio of our Riad. Pre-heat a dry pan over a medium-high heat.
