ChezHelvetica Hostel opened for summer season with a flurry of reservations from family members. Our honored guest this evening was my Mom. Mouth-watering Shenson’s corned beef, oven-roasted rather boiled, was the featured entree served with Stonewall Kitchen Horseradish Cream Sauce and Grey Poupon Country Dijon Mustard. Crudites and a piquant Danish potato salad completed the main course. A delicious Ficklin Port satisfied my Mother’s preference for sweet wine while we also served a smooth Renwood Old Vine Zin. What better to have for a summer dessert than a Fruit Tart? Apricots, blackberries and walnuts crowned puff pastry, embellished with Safeway‘s Homestyle Vanilla Ice Cream. Welcome to this season of warmth and long days!
