Jamón

A few years ago, a Spanish friend introduced us to Jamon Iberico. Without waxing too poetic about it, it is simply the best ham I have ever tasted. Even the lowest of the three grades is far better than anything I have tasted! So when I had the opportunity to buy a jamón ibérico with a decorative stand and stainless ham knife, I did not hesitate. I thought it would be excellent for our stay in the chalet, but it unfortunately did not arrive in time, so now we must torture ourselves with endless Jamon.

Zoe and Alex seem to love it, and cram the thinly sliced Jamón into their mouths as fast as I can slice it (which admittedly is not all that fast).

Tour des Sens!

another fabulous meal at Tour des Sens! Thank you Stephanie!











What more could you ask for besides perfect weather and delicious (not to mention creative!) food on a terrace overlooking the Chartreuse?
