- Swiss German. It is the bastard child of romance elisions and Germanic umlauts.
- Their love of cows and jokes like 'have a nice hay'.
- Curried corn. It is just so wrong. Unless your chef has spent at least three years at the foot of a South Asian master, stay away from the spice rack. And it doesn't matter how precisely the rice is shaped, if it's not cooked it's still not going to taste nice.Stick to things you're good at Switzerland, like fondue, and hiding large sums of money for dubious people.
Things that we love about Switzerland ...
- Raclette.
- Rosti.
- Raclette on rosti.
- Bread. Fondue. Potatoes. Fat and carbs basically.
- Engineering. No messing about. Just put the train line right through the Alps.
- 4pm wake up calls, otherwise known as Jagertee, leading to at least another two hours of skiing. Black run anyone? Absolutely.
- Night skiing with a full moon over an amphitheatre of big mountains.
