Where was the G8 summit held?

It wasn’t all hard work at the G8 summit of the world’s most powerful leaders. French President Jacques Chirac offered his colleagues a lunch Monday that featured specialties from the southeastern region of France.
     The assembled heads of state or government from Britain, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States joined Chirac for crayfish from the nearby Lake Geneva, pigeon accompanied by new potatoes, assorted cheeses and a soft and creamy cake.
     The meal was prepared by a culinary school in Thonon, several kilometers from the summit Site. Afterwards the leaders posed for pictures with the young chefs.
