My Favorite Crepe from France (feat. @Alex)

I’m not a big sweets guy, so I was never a fan of crepes with syrups, nutella or fruit. Because of that I never wanted to make them at home. That all changed when I came to France and discovered what the French people call a galette, a crispy buckwheat crepe served with savory toppings.
