Answer 5

The course is called the intermezzo, usually a small scoop of sorbet,which is has no cream. Sorbets are basically frozen, flavored sugary water  with fruit, wine or liquors. I have had sorbets flavored with passion fruit, pink champagne, and triple sec. The is an almost endless combination.

Answer 6

... but "intermezzo" is an italian word. I think that's the "trou normand".

"The mealtime trou normand, or Norman break, is a pause between meal courses in which diners partake of a glassful of calvados, and is still observed in many homes and restaurants (in Normandy)"

(and the "amuse BOUCHE" is not to clean the pallet ° )
