Hello?
Oh, no one?
Oh. Ok... well then here is another spotting of the infamous apple pastry, this time in Germany.

TIP: Just remember, if you have the pleasure of eating this apple strudel with said passionfruit garnish with your boss' boss, and your boss' boss' boss... don't tell that boss' boss' boss to try the delicious passionfruit that she has never eaten before, because after a few glasses of wine, the next thing you know -you and the boss' boss' boss will be stealing all the leftover, unappreciated passionfruits from the table, and while savoring this unique and unexpected moment, filling yourself with the unseasonal fruit, you might just tell the boss' boss' boss that you really enjoy the taste and mention that you are amazed at the fruit, and that it is really "boogery..." and then the boss' boss' boss will drop her spoon and say she is done... and you will know that despite all attempts at impressing one's boss' boss' boss, you have just said something that one might consider a 'career limiting move.' Just a tip. You can thank me later.
But, hell... that's what I am here for on the Swisstory - highlighting all of life's deliciousness. Even if some of it is a bit boogery... don't worry though - the strudel was, despite all bittersweet moments, a divine highlight... just skip the passionfruit, ok? ;)

Nice "tip" description. One of the best things about eating here is Apfel Struedel... agree 100%
Yum, I'm reading this around dinnertime, and it's making me hungry.
Even as an American I only know the British meaning for "buggery", which is actually a little spoon-dropping. Now I'm all curious. What is the meaning you have for it?
I think I spelled it wrong before, Virginia. I meant, 'boogery' as in this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dried_nasal_mucus
:)
I never get tired of reading anything you write about any of the food in Switzerland . . . or anywhere else. I miss all these things you describe and am learning about some I overlooked!!!!
I tried to think of a place where use of the word "boogery" wouldn't be career limiting... and I couldn't think of a one. But in your defense, accuracy and detail are both character traits which ought to be encouraged by employers... and describing soggy passion fruit as "boogery" seems to be evidence of both such traits in you! :-P
suddenly i am staaaarving and luncg time is not in sight
thanks a lot
;p
