Dear Community of the Collège du Léman,
Last night, our dining hall transported us to the vibrant culinary world of Portugal with an international-themed dinner. The menu was a delicious celebration of Portuguese flavors, starting with freshly baked bread infused with smoky chorizo—crispy on the outside and soft within. For the main course, we enjoyed tender roasted chicken paired with golden, seasoned potatoes, a comforting and hearty dish that brought warmth to the chilly evening. The dining hall’s dedication to authenticity and attention to detail made every bite feel like a journey to a Portuguese family table.
To end the meal on a sweet note, we were treated to the iconic pastel de nata, Portugal’s beloved custard tart. These creamy, caramelized delights were the highlight of the evening, leaving everyone with smiles and requests for seconds. The dinner not only satisfied our taste buds but also gave us a chance to connect with Portuguese culture through food. It was a wonderful reminder of how meals can bring people together and offer a window into different traditions.
Best regards,
College du Léman team!
