Horst Mager's / Gustav's Fondue (Rhinelander)
This is a fondue that used to be available at the longtime local favorite Rhinelander restaurant, and subsequently Gustav's restaurants, both founded by Chef Horst Mager in Portland Oregon. I just can't stress enough how delicious this fondue is. Whether you are a fondue fan, or not, you simply must try this very easy to make favorite.
