Many of our customers saw us on Raymond Blanc's tv show with Eric and amazingly lots of people found us for the first time and have been coming in to the shop. Amazing because if you saw it, they didn't show the front of the store or much else except the cheese and a bit of Nicolas' apron. Here are a couple of pics of them being serious and clowning around, it was a great day!

So much to see!



Being picky and choosy at the Salon. Far too much choice but a fantastic show.....


Amnon,Todd went recently to Paris for the Salon de Fromage show, which takes place every two years. It show cases all the best cheese producers and suppliers from Europe and has a food show second to none! we sourced some seriously good products, so come spring you will need to get to the shop to see some of the incredible things we are bringing in.

Whitely's no more!

Sadly we have had a change of management at the shopping centre and we have decided to move on and concentrate on our new venture! more news about that to follow. We learnt lots and hope to use that format in other places.

Vacherin Mont D'or


This is a special time of year for cheese lovers as its when the delicious Vacherin Mont D'or is made available.
From November to March (approximately, it varies every season) we stock the seasons best Vacherin Mont D'or fresh from France. This seasons' batch has been particularly scrumptious, full bodied and creamy with a slight floral undertone...
Vacherin Mont D'or originates from the villages of the Jura region, an area that resides in both France and Switzerland, and is made between August 15th and March 15th and is brought to our shelves 2 to 3 months later.
As a cheese is can be eaten at room temperature but is more commonly served heated (in the oven for about 15 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius) in its box, or to spruce things up a little pour a cup of dry white wine over the cheese and bake for 15 minutes. It can be served with blanched vegetables, boiled potatoes or even with our delicious bread.
It perfect for dinner parties as an entree, main or dessert
Come in now and try this incredible cheese!
