Coupe Romanoff

I have a new favorite dessert. It's called Coupe Romanoff. I know it won't sound that exciting when I describe it, but it's really good! We're now into strawberry season in Basel (everything has a season around here) so the strawberries are fresh and good and that's why Coupe Romanoff now appears on menus in restaurants through the region. We went out for dinner on both Friday night and Saturday night over this past weekend, and I had Coupe Romanoff both nights! Here are the simple, yet delicious, ingredients: a big bowl of cut-up strawberries, a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream on top. Like I said, I know it's nothing fancy, but boy is it good.
