The wonderful cheeses of the Piedmont region are worth trying!
Racclet (spelling?) is a fantastic way of enjoying the traditional 'fondue' style. A large block of cheese (literally half a wheel for 5 of us) is placed on a rack on the centre of your table and a heating element put across it (end on) - this then causes the cheese to slowly melt and you are provided with pickled veg, baked potatoes and a selection of cold meats that you then 'drip' the cheese onto! Very indulgent!
We did this at the Brasserie (owned and next door to the Breithorn Hotel)
