New Friends, Part Two

Over the weekend, Riki's in-town friends, Andre & Melanie, invited us to dinner. They prepared Raclette, a do-it-yourself meal of great fun and delicious food. Basically you have a small frying pan thingy and you fill it with veggies and meat and then a slice of cheese and then you put it under a table-broiler until it's all melty. Mmmmmm! For this party we could choose from onions, mushrooms, red peppers, pre-boiled potato slices, salami, ham, pineapple, pickles, corn and two types of cheese. Using the grill atop the broilers, we cooked delicious chicken and pork. Along with some salad, wine, bread, and two very hospitable hosts, it was a fantastic meal! Thanks, Andre & Melanie!
I'm pretty excited about Raclette; I'm already thinking up various themes one could have at a Raclette dinner party. Thankfully, Riki already has a Raclette grill, so we'll be Racletting up a storm in no time! YAY!
