We finally had fondue here! It was so fun! Ruth and Heinz made it for us. Because the weather has been so rainy and cold they said it was fondue time. They actually made it a little different and added tomato sauce to it. It was a good flavor. It felt authentic. The fondue pot she has had little adelvice flowers printed on it. It was all rainy outside and we were warm around the fondue pot dipping bread, tomatoes, and zucchini. I really want a fondue pot! If I find one here that I love I will bring it home with me so I can have authentic fondue whenever I want! Ruth said that they used to traditionally do fondue over a candle! All else fails with the pot idea I know what I can afford... a candle for fondue.
We also had raclette which is a Swiss dish as well. It is like a grill that you put on the table, get your cheese tray, load it, stick it under the grill, and wait for the cheese to melt. Meanwhile you take your potatoes, your vegetables, whatever else you want and get them ready on your plate. On the actual grill you cook some bacon. It is very interactive and a fun way to eat dinner. It was so good too! The cheese just slips out of the trays and you pour it over your potatoes, vegetables, and meat. Then you load it up again and start all over. It was really fun doing this and so scrumptious.
