CHICKEN, POTATOES & APPLE CRUMBLE
The first time, we tried - and didn't quite succeed - to cook a whole chicken.
-e Suppenhänchen,- (n.): A chicken intended for soup, pretty clear from its name.
Since it was ridiculously cheaper than any other chicken, we decided to use this, which turned out to be a mistake. Soup chickens tend to have very little meat on them, which is why they are used for soups. Oops!
Nonetheless, it turned out to be a pretty good meal. The potatoes and salad were delicious, and the lack of chicken left us plenty of room for the apple crumble!

RACLETTE BAKED OVER POTATOES, MISO SOUP & FRUIT SALAD WITH CHOCOLATE FONDUE
It was intended to be a Swiss dinner but some miso soup never hurts! I bought the raclette cheese in Switzerland and we baked it over the potatoes in the oven due to the lack of a raclette machine. Then we had sweet onion pearls and pickles on the side. For desert (I'm half surprised we made it that far!), we had an enormous bowl of fruit salad and a chocolate fondue.

TUNA & TERIYAKI BEEF SUSHI & CHEESE CAKE WITH ELDER BERRY-BANANA YOGURT SAUCE
It was Japanese night! So we got together some tuna, teriyaki pork, fried eggs, avocado, cucumber and pickled ginger and made some sushi. I had bought some elder berry juice out of curiosity, so we decided to turn that into a sauce for the cheese cake we had bought. It was all delicious and very presentable!
