Re: The British Cheese Centre of Switzerland

There's no market in the Zürich HB this week so I'm taking the opportunity to nip to the UK later this week to find some new cheeses. Already on the way are Double Gloucester, Double Berkely and Hereford Hop (great with beer) from the Stinking Bishop stable (which is also coming back), Westcombe PDO "Slow Food" Cheddar from Somerset, Beenleigh and Harbourne Blues from Devon and a few new Scottish cheeses including Blue Monday (mentioned earlier) and Caboc, a soft buttery cheese rolled in oats. All the old regulars will be fully stocked up too including plenty of King Richard III Wensleydale.

Loads of free tasting events booked for April including a tour of some of the Pickwick Pubs to celebrate St George's day, Expat-Expo in Cham and Sunday 24th April I'm back in Bern at the Artplace 88 Gallery for a free beer and cheese tasting day.

If anyone needs a cheese or chutney fix tomorrow, I'm attending a charity fundraiser Coffee Morning in aid of Stepping Stones in Richterswil, ZH from 9.30 - 12.30. Peace Foods will also be there and hand made Jewellery, greetings cards and other gifts will also be on sale. Entry is free. PM me for the address as it is being held in a private home.
