Fondue

Well, we went to a typical Swiss restaurant for fondue Friday night.  We sat on a beautiful outdoor area. had some great white wine, visited with lots of Julia's friends from India, Turkey, England, New Zealand and Canada.....a truly international meal.
The meal......bread and cheese. The cheese is a blend of two types, served in a pot.  You rip the bread into pieces, then stick it on a skewer and and dip.  And dip.  And dip.  Yum.... And you drink white wine because it aids in digestion.  Dip. Sip. Dip. Sip. Dis. Sid........


Then we had dessert.  Dan had Pear William... a pear sorbet with a pear liquor poured over it.  I opted for the meringue with glace and creme. (Note to wives:  Switzerland is a little more expensive than France.  Example:  Lunch of three courses in France:  15 E.  Dessert in Vevey:  16 Franc.  Or a $22 lunch in France and a $24 dessert in Switzerland.  .... .... .... Please add more cash to the accounts.)
