Dear Community of the Collège du Léman,

Last night, our dining hall transformed into a Mediterranean feast as we celebrated Greece for this week’s International Dinner! Every Wednesday, we take a culinary journey around the world, and this time, the flavors of Greece brought a fresh and delicious experience to our community.

We started with a refreshing appetizer of tzatziki—a creamy, garlicky yogurt dip—served with crisp, colorful raw vegetables. For the main course, we enjoyed chicken souvlaki, marinated to perfection and grilled to a golden brown, served with warm, fluffy pita bread. To finish the meal on a sweet note, we had Greek yogurt drizzled with honey and fresh fruit, a simple yet delightful dessert that perfectly captured the balance of tangy and sweet.

These international dinners are always a highlight of the week, bringing us together to explore new tastes and traditions. We can’t wait for next Wednesday!

Best,

Collège du Léman Team!

Dear Community of the Collège du Léman,

Last night, our dining hall hosted a special International Dinner featuring the flavors of Iran. The menu included tahchin, a crispy saffron rice cake, lamb shank slow-cooked with aromatic spices, and choelazard, a delicious Persian dessert. The rich flavors and warm spices made for an unforgettable meal.

What made the night even more special was the return of a former student who left three years ago. They joined the kitchen team to help prepare the dishes, bringing their passion for Iranian cuisine to our school once again. It was a wonderful evening filled with great food, culture, and connection. We can’t wait for the next International Dinner!

Best,

Collège du Léman Team!

Dear Community of the Collège du Léman,

Today, our boarding school hosted an International Dinner, and this time, we took a delicious trip to Mexico! The dinner featured a variety of classic Mexican dishes, including tacos, nachos with guacamole, rice, and burritos. The tacos were filled with tender meats and topped with fresh salsa, cheese, and a squeeze of lime. The nachos, served with creamy guacamole, were a hit, and the flavorful Mexican rice perfectly complemented the hearty meal.

For dessert, we indulged in bunuelos de nata, which were crispy fried dough treats lightly dusted with sugar. These sweet bites were paired with a rich, spicy chili con chocolate sauce that added a unique twist to the traditional dessert. The combination of sweetness and heat was a delightful surprise, making for a memorable finish to the meal.

The International Dinner was not only about enjoying great food but also celebrating Mexican culture and bringing everyone together. The lively atmosphere was filled with conversation, laughter, and an appreciation for the rich flavors of Mexico. It was a fantastic opportunity to bond over food, explore new tastes, and make lasting memories with friends. Here’s to many more cultural dinners in the future!
