Tonight I’m finally back in action in New York City after a long business trip in Geneva, Davos, and Zurich, Switzerland. Unfortunately I missed my sister’s birthday while in the Swiss Alps so to make it up to her, I’m hosting her at her new apartment for a night of proper Swiss fondue, complete with crusty bread, dijon new potatoes and fresh salad (sketch above). Beyond the basics, I have some other delicious surprises waiting for her including fois gras, a luxurious bottle of kirsch, a good bottle of Fendant, chocolate truffles and a dozen decadent macarons made in Zurich less than two days ago.
While I’ve dined on cheese fondue many a time, I’ve never actually made it, so I look forward to reporting back once the birthday party is over. Happy Birthday, Kippy!

Awesome! I was in Switzerland recently and have a few posts of my trip. I like Raclette better but I hope your sister enjoys the fondue! Thank you for sharing.

@Sani panini – thank you! I love drawing before I cook, more fun than writing out a menu!

@ Create.it. Can’t wait to check our your posts. Raclette rocks. Luckily my sister has the fondue pot and my Dad has the Raclette grille so I’m covered! Thanks for your comment.
