I wanted to write about the Swiss Federal Fast Day
(that was last Sunday, the day my dad turned 70),
but didn't find anything in English... except for the link below. I have no idea whatsoever whether this is the right soup or only the family described's tradition, though.

Soupe du Chalet?

Happy 70th to your dad from Australia.

Apologies to the others, it's the only explatation I could find.: www.pasaj.ch/le-jeune-federal-article369.html In German, it would be Eidgenossisches Fast Tag??
