French Onion Soup Page

Located at the Fairmont in Banff Springs, Alberta, this German take on the French classic is interesting.  The cheese was absolutely delicious (combination of gruyere and emmentaler, just like in their fondue).  However, there was very little of it, as it was cut to fit the shape of the piece of bread.  The broth was also delicious, and very meaty.  It suffered the same problem, as there was only around a millimetre of it (that’s Canadian for “millimeter”, which is also Canadian for “very little”).  The bread you see in the picture is not floating.  You could really only get around 5 or 6 spoonfuls of broth.  Excellent ingredients, though!
