Alpages at Annecy XV - FOOD!


This is a dish known as Raclette found in this area of France and Switzerland. It is a mouthwatering combo of melted cheese and meats etc. YUM!












Here is some food we saw in a store window that DID NOT look so appetizing!









This guy was making apple juice.

Gelatenous fish leave me cold. But the gooy cheese looked temping.
