How enthusiastic can be you can when presenting a dish? When Micheline, our 30-year-old colleague from the Lovenfosse cutting hall, introduces us to her traditional family recipes, there is no way to ignore her energy. She likes to prepare this dish for her family or her friends in her gospel choir. Micheline also confesses that she enjoys baking, which is something that the children and staff of the schools where she does volunteer work are also very happy about!
