KONG6 - menu

Many KONG-expeditions have been good cooking exercises - partly caused by excellent raw material, partly by enthusiastic participants - both on the cooking and consuming side. This time we bothered to make notes of most meals. Not because they were particular in any way - but just for fun. Now you know what we're up to when we are not DX-ing ...
