Flamkuchen
This is one of Yves' specialties. It's from Alsace, a bit of land between France and Germany that has been owned alternately by the two countries in a tug-o-war battle that ended more or less sometime after Alsace voted to be French. As a result of this history, the recipes of the region are a fusion of French and German cuisine.
