The Cheese thread.......

I shall try Indian curry next time I'm in London (probably in October).

Can you imagine?

Joy of joys.....there was Gorgonzola Cremosa, one of my all time favourite wines, (for the first time in three years) in the cheesemonger's.

Now, granted, I had been advised at the weekend that they were expecting a delivery of this divine delicacy this week, and that it was scheduled to arrive on this Monday past.

With commendable restraint and a heroic degree of self-control, I held off paying a visit to the cheesemonger's until today.

A proper Indian curry, in the sort of restaurant (even if it looks a little down at heel) that is frequented by and patronised by (many) Asians.

Is there a list? I don't really feel comfortable with just loitering around a restaurant to check the audience.

No, but ask the people you know - or work with - who are based in London for recommendations.

I have been greedily enjoying generous helpings of Gorgonzola Cremosa on some gorgeous treacle bread.

The Dishoom chain was just recommended to me. I’ll add it to my list.

Time for a smoked Godminster. Salty, smoky, tasty. I’ll have a glass of capers with it. Amazing.

I have been indulging - with greedy delight - in Gorgonzola Cremosa this week.

I paid a visit to the cheesemonger's this morning and purchased a number of cheeses:

A small slice of Jarlsberg (from Norway) and another small slice of young Comte (from France) comprised the hard cheeses (though neither cheese is "hard" as both are young and flexible; perfect breakfast cheese).

Some Brie de Meaux (from Normandy) and Taleggio (from Italy) were the soft cheeses.

And a slice of gloriously oozing, almost liquid, Gorgonzola Cremosa (a creamy delight), a blue cheese from Italy, completed my selection.
