Bonjour Stephen,
In French, there is indeed a list of adjectives that can be placed before or after nouns. As a result, their meaning change.
After the noun: literal / objective meaning - Before the noun: subjective / figurative meaning
Having looked at the content of the writing exercise, it is the correct way of placing the adjective here. It is also a stylistic choice in keeping with the other expressions from the text.
l’emblématique fondue = la fameuse fondue / la célèbre fondue
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée!
