Switzerland's food might not be the finest, but it is excellent nonetheless. It was great again to taste all the specialties. First, the wild mushrooms and the vol-au-vent. So tasty!
Besides mushrooms, a famous Swiss specialty is cheese. This time it was the raclette. Do not get fooled by the nicely decorated plate, the interesting part is the melted cheese on top of the potato.
There is never enough cheese... The next dish was indeed heavy, but this is what is needed to survive in our cold mountains. Obviously, the bottle of white wine helps too...
Switzerland is also a land of lakes, and we have the best little fishes, the perchs. With a secret sauce and some french fries, it is divine.
Obviously, there is other "foreign" foods to enjoy. One of the best was this pizza calzone! Such a good dough and a diverse filling of cheese, tomato, ham, egg and mushroom.
Of course, a meal is never complete without deserts. The nicest is when there is a choice of delicious cakes in front of you. And the best is, when you do not have to choose, but you can have all of them! The chocolate cakes - black forest and truffle - were only slightly more delicious than the fruity cakes.
In the end, it can not only be about eating eating eating. There is also a time for cooking. So there I made this healthy apple cake (with some welcome help). If you want a tip, it is best to eat it accompanied with ice cream and whipped cream.
After all this, what is one of the first thing I did back in Washington? Buy a scale...! Let me not write here what it did tell me...
