Delighted to be stocking in the shop Cobble Lane Cured meats.
We did stock their delicious meats on the market but they have now started selling Guanciale.
Guanciale has a sweet and intense flavour that melts in your mouth. Thinly slice it to eat on its own, in a sandwich or it can be used in many pasta dishes, especially a Carbonara.
Prepping for our Raclette Sunday
Don't forget, Raclette in the courtyard tomorrow 12pm until 4pm..... This is just a little teaser of what's in-store!
Just listen to that cheese ๐
We also have an alcohol licence for the weekend so will be serving wine, beer and soft drinks.
A bit of bad news, a bit of exciting news and a great big thank you!
Just had to pop out of the shop quickly and was drawn to the music on the high street. There is a lovely vibe in the town this morning helped by this very talented musician
I've gone from being the person that ordered corporate breakfasts and lunches to now owning my own company that provides them.
I guess knowing what I expected from my suppliers in my previous life gives me a bit of an advantage when dealing with my customers who order from me....that and the quality of the ingredients
I'm lucky enough to have a few regular customers, this breakfast was delivered this morning for 140 employees.
A little piece on how this Manchego from Pata Negra is the reason I started my cheese adventure and changed my life!
NEW CHEESE ALERT
This one is so special it deserves a video. Pyghtle is now in our counter. Limited availability so don't miss out.
p.s. when I say it lasts I mean the flavour lasts...not the cheese, that disappears pretty quickly ๐คฃ
(Also if you get bored of my video you could just use it as a drinking game....every time I say cheese take a drink! )
It's been a busy week and I'm behind on emails and messages. I have one more event to do today and I will then start catching up. Thank you for your patience.
But first a Sunday morning stroll with my two faves and a delicious coffee from @hideawaycafe
How do you make a 3kg wheel of Brie de Meaux any better??? How about turning it into a 3kg wheel of Brie cake....
This award winning Brie de Meaux Donge was topped with cured meats, anti pasti, fresh fruits and nuts. We think it's the perfect way to celebrate any special occasion.... What do you think?

Not knowing what to expect we went to the kite festival and WOW.... What an amazing event organised by Royston Rotary Club
I originally thought there were drones attached to the kites but they are actually operated by people!
There is still time to get down to The Heath and enjoy this amazing family day out
The corporate lunch of dreams we created last week....
One year of grazing boards
One year of learning
One year of creating
One year of cheesy dreams
One year of maths
One year of self doubt
One year of believing in myself
One year of gumption
One year of pushing myself
One year of surprise
One year of believing
See what I've done in a year, imagine two....
Happy Birthday to us....
One grazing box left.....and it's only 8.15am
To avoid disappointment pre-order!
