January Copains & Croissants Meetup!

Bonne année, copains!!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday break and that you are ready to get back to our (almost) monthly French Club meetups!

For our January meetup, I'm excited to announce that we will be having a Fondue & Raclette night at my home in Downtown San Jose. Please mark your calendars and RSVP accordingly for Saturday, January 31st, from 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM at 38 N. Almaden Blvd, San Jose.

If you aren't familiar with Raclette, it's a type of melted cheese that the French (and Swiss) typically enjoy in the Winter. So let's partake in the tradition and have a Fête au Fromage!

I'll supply the cheese for the raclette and the fondue, but if everyone could please bring something to go with it, that would be magnifique - I've included a suggested list of items below for convenience.

As a side note, those who attended any of the events in 2025 know that there was a $10 fee for each event. For 2026, there will not be any fees, but I will happily accept donations if anyone would like to contribute - Zelle, Venmo, Paypal and cash are always welcome.

Lastly, if anyone has an extra raclette grill or fondue pot that they can bring, please text me at 650.737.2992. I have one grill and one fondue pot, but it would be better if we could have one or two more.

Merci beaucoup et à bientôt!!!

Cordialement,
Jasmine
