OK.....
For the “sceptical” I will try and enlighten what the unit on the table is,
the unit is what we Swiss call
table grill or better known (in Switzerland) as Raclettegrill
We use it for “melting” the Raclette (cheese)
what is Raclette?
According to documentary evidence from monasteries in Ob- and Nidwalden, we can presume that Wilhelm Tell enjoyed «Bratchäs», as raclettes were formerly called, in as early as 1291. This involved melting the raclette cheese over an open fire and gradually scraping the softened cheese onto a plate. The younger generations have now acquired knowledge of and developed a passion for the product. In this way, the herbs on our meadows give rise to a unique product that embodies our tradition and our culture. Raclette is therefore a genuine piece of Switzerland – and only the Raclette Suisse ® brand is your guarantee of natural purity, first-rate quality and product safety.
How to prepare for a raclette Traditional: Melt half a wheel of Raclette cheese under the traditional grill.
We use the Quick and easy way we use an electric grill with Raclette-pans
…… which is the middle part of the table grill oven
On the top of the so called “tisch grill” we grill meats and deferent sausages as well as vegetables…….
It is like the Fondue (which we will have tonight) a “party” dinner, just slowly eating and cocking at the same time…. each one the “speed” he chooses
and the quantity he chooses…..
Mostly we serve “raclette Potatoes” (its new potatoes) and Perl onions cornishons fresh tomatoes onions and garlic,
and most important a good (light) white wine
… and some schnapps……
so.... any Quetions?
Michael

Cheese isn't a weakness - it's one of the four major food groups in these here parts.

Umm.. that bit wasn't a secret was it Michael?

We know that. As soon as we can swing it and I can pour Pat into an airplane, we'll be there! We'll give you plenty of warning, though.
