Hi. What should I do for dinner tonight?
Hi, how can I help you? Hello. Would you like to order take-out, cook at home, or go out?
I was thinking about cooking at home.
I can help with that. What are you in the mood for?
I was kind of thinking something along the lines of chicken cordon bleu.
A cordon bleu or schnitzel cordon bleu is a dish of meat wrapped around cheese, then breaded and pan-fried or deep-fried.
Okay. Do you have any ideas of like what I should make?
In its most classic form, cordon bleu is chicken or veal wrapped around Swiss cheese and ham. The classic recipe, however is much more flavorful when the cheese used is a tasty, complex gourmet cheese.
Interesting.
Chicken Cordon bleu with Dijon Cream Sauce – Tender chicken, ham, and swiss cheese rolled and lightly breaded, then baked to crispy perfection and topped with a rich Dijon cream sauce.
Wow! that's interesting. I never knew that. Do you have any suggestions of what I should make with that?
Something with mayonnaise.
So, you mean like a potato salad or a macaroni salad?
Right. As little spice as possible.
Yeah, that makes sense. Alright. I think that'll be it for me. Thank you.
I also have a few other options.
Oh, okay. Sure. Let's hear it.
Wiener Schnitzel.

Wiener Schnitzel, or Wienerschnitzel in Switzerland, is a very thin, breaded and pan fried cutlet made from veal. It is one of the best known specialities of Viennese cuisine. The Wiener Schnitzel is one of the national dishes of Austria.
Interesting. Allright. What was your other suggestion?
An escalope is a piece of boneless meat that has been thinned out using a mallet, rolling pin or beaten with the handle of a knife, or merely butterflied.
What is that?
Home fries.

Oh, okay.

Okay. Is that it?
Tafelspitz is boiled veal or beef in broth, served with a mix of minced apples and horseradish. It is considered to be one of the many national dishes of Austria and is equally popular in the neighboring German state of Bavaria.
Any other suggestions?
Kaiserschmarrn or Kaiserschmarren is a shredded pancake, which has its name from the Austrian emperor Franz Joseph, who was very fond of this kind of fluffy shredded pancake. Goulash is a stew of meat and vegetables, seasoned with paprika and other spices. Originating from the medieval Hungary, Goulash is a popular meal predominantly eaten in Central Europe, but as well as in other parts of Europe.
Interesting. Alright. Well, I think I'll go with the chicken cordon bleu.
Sure.
But I'm going to keep in mind some of the stuff that you had said about that, like the sauces and such because that was actually really interesting and I appreciate it. Thank you. That'll be it.
Is there anything else you need? Knödel, or Klöße are boiled dumplings commonly found in Central European and East European cuisine.
No. I think I'm done. I got what I needed. Thank you.
Got it. Talk to you next time. Bye.
