    All the fondues I've had in Switzerland were cheese based main courses :confused:

    Aye, same here.

    Its possibly just what the Chef called it. She did ask him about it and it had Gelatin in it apparently. :confused:

    It would be a melted cheese dish and if it was orange it was probably made with coloured cheese. The swiss stuff is usually done with gruyere which is yellow.

    You can try this recipe:

    It was a desert.

    Not a Fondue, a Fonde. Iv told her that she must be wrong about the name but shes sure that was what it was called.

    if it was sweet, was it a fondent? As owt said, it was probably simply what the chef called it. What restaurant was it? As most have websites and menus reproduced there to check the name.

    How about the filling of this?

    Or this?
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
