Lemongrass ricotta hotcakes from Pacamara Boutique Coffee Roasters – fluffy lemongrass infused ricotta hotcakes topped with mixed berry compote and maple syrup on side. The fragrance of lemongrass makes an instant, impressive debut but it is quickly overshadowed by the vivacious sexiness of the mixed berry compote, a delirious combination…
