First, some terminology.
crêpe - it starts out with a really thin pancake-like thing, and then you fill it with delicious stuff like chocolate, fruit, or Nutella. It's amazing. (By the way, just for the record, it's pronounced like creh-puh [rhymes with Jonny Depp's last name] it is NOT a craype!)
galette - like a crepe, but made with buckwheat flour and no sugar, and filled with ham (jambon), cheese, eggs, and sometimes other stuff. It's a specialty of Bretagne.
nutella - an amazing spread with peanut-butterish consistency, made of hazlenuts and chocolate. Very European, very delicious. Great in crêpes.
