On Monday, there was the Danish meal. Students ate much fish, for example the smorrebrod and the friskadeller. On Tuesday, a Slovenian meal was served. It was one of the most original meals of the week. For instance, the soup was savoury and substantial. Students ate poultry for the main course and they discovered potica for the dessert. On Thursday, there was a Cypriot meal, inspired from Greek and Turkish cuisines. Everyone enjoyed the gyros (kebab) and the kourambiedes which is an almond cake. To finish, the Italian meal on Friday was a success. Most students enjoyed the brushetta, pasta carbonara and tiramisu.

Thanks to this project, we discovered European culinary traditions. After selecting four European countries, we carried out some research to suggest seasonal recipes to the chef. Once Mr Benchiha had chosen the dishes, we created a slideshow which we presented to the classes. We were glad to see how enthusiastic our schoolmates were. We also had the opportunity to help out in the canteen. We have a better understanding of the role of the canteen staff.

Here is the slideshow about the European menus :
