I found myself thinking, while eating of the fondue, that I would love to take a bath in it!<br /><br />And Cory - so into the liquor first, eh? Using dry bread? Sounds good. Do they still put the liquor into the fondue?Brooklynguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16321573602782343974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-68251884857490541142010-02-27T17:24:02.373-05:002010-02-27T17:24:02.373-05:00You're right.

I like whites with better acid, though an oxidative white might be interesting too. The charcuterie looks great at the top btw.Michael Powersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-397225686302465032010-02-27T00:12:54.074-05:002010-02-27T00:12:54.074-05:00We enjoy the jaquerre from Masson (Apremont) with ...We enjoy the jaquerre from Masson (Apremont) with cheese fondue.and we splash it into the fondue as well!Mark Anismannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-23501760945147007152010-02-26T21:52:56.539-05:002010-02-26T21:52:56.539-05:00Red Burgundy with fondue?
