- Flambéing is often associated with the tableside presentation of certain liqueur-drenched dishes set aflame, such as Bananas Foster or Cherries Jubilee when the alcohol is ignited and results in a flare of blue-tinged flame.
- However, flambéing is also a step in making coq au vin and other dishes and sauces, using spirits before they are brought to the table.

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 53 and blocks with 46: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
