La Banquise is a popular spot in Tanger, known for their delicious chausson au fromage - a pastry filled with creamy cheese that is so good, you might want to be careful not to burn your mouth on the first bite! These treats are popular and often sell out by noon, but the good news is that they are made fresh every 15 minutes, so a little patience may be rewarded with a tasty treat. Don't miss out on the chance to try these famous pastries while you're in Tanger!
