The auberge was high up in the Vosges Mountains. Giant cows (truly happy cows) grazed in the adjoining fields. The restaurant was expecting us, as we were on a private tour day with Martine and Pierre. The menu offered two things, a Munster cheese and potato casserole with salad, or sliced pork with the best darned potatoes in existence plus a salad. Everything was house made: even the cheese and the pork. We drank cremant (the local sparkling wine, and renowned as the best in Alsace). Dessert was handmade vanilla ice cream from the happy cows, topped with cherry liquor sauce. The cafe itself was like something out of a Heidi movie, featuring cowbells and pottery.
More later!
Absolutely lovely Vickie. What beautiful pictures and memories. :)
