Wine: Dole Du Valais

The first of many local wines you'll be seeing, as the saying with Swiss wines is that its all the stuff that was too good to export.

This white comes from Switzerland's third largest canton, Valais. Fruity without being too sweet, it also hada slight "fizz" (not like champagne, more subtle).

Wine: Loggia Del Conte

A good Italian Chianti, good flavor without "insisting on itself" (ok, so we don't know wine so much, but it was really good with a beef dish).

Beer: Kaiser Bier

A flavorful Austiran lager. We enjoyed many.

Meal: Quiche

Last night I made Steve true French meal, quiche.

I made it with spinich sauted in garlic and onions, smoked salmon, and feta cheese on top of the pie crust with the egg and milk mixture poured on top.

"Mmmmmmmmmm....." - Steve.
