You can still enjoy the taste of barbecue when the weather is cold. Just close your eyes and bite into your burger, and you’ll almost feel the fresh air. For a moment, it’ll be like stepping into a summer’s day.
*Real fondue lovers can also pour fondue inside the bread for extra cheesiness.
**For a vegetarian version, replace the meat with a slice of eggplant or a beetroot ball.

This superb cheese fondue is a uniquely innovative combination! The floral notes of the Mauricie-based Mariana distillery’s Violette gin are perfectly set off by a flavourful blend of local cheeses. Chic! au gin will delight fondue-lovers looking for something deliciously different.
