My grandkids have been requesting for us to have a raclette dinner. Finally, I succumbed to their wish and prepared one last night. They love the idea of grilling on the table.
As you can see, we grilled some mini kielbasa sausages and potatoes with rosemary. I forgot to take a picture when the cheese was grilling. Those individual pans go underneath the grill to melt the cheese.
I used my square Polish pottery salad plates in varying designs.
I also served some salami and prosciutto.
Various crackers and pickles.
I use the 2 oz jiggers to serve Ningxia red, a drink that is very high in antioxidants. We drink it everyday and it help us stay healthy.
The pickled okra were so good, a little spicy but not too much, with just a little kick. Even the grandkids were able to eat them.
The kids, except for the oldest boy, actually do not like raclette that much. It has a very powerful smell, so I also served some brie.
I gave the kids sparkling non alcoholic red grape juice cocktail and they were so excited, pretending it to be wine and they kept toasting each other, lol.
And this concludes our raclette dinner. I hope you enjoyed looking at the photos as much as we enjoyed the experience. Thank you so much for stopping by and thanks to the hostesses of the memes that I will be linking to.

You are such a kind grandma to give the grandkids raclette; that is quite a big production. When our neighbors who are Swiss invited us to their house for raclette we loved it.
WOW Christine! You are the best grandmother! Girl, I have learned something today. I have never heard of a racelet dinner before. I am intrigued. Now you having me wanting to do this! Such a beautiful setting. I am going to check out the ningxia too. I heard that eldenberry was healthy and during a flu epidemic I went every place I knew and they were sold out. Love you sharing your food and tablescape. Just wish I had some of that good food. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
