Le Marche du Quartier means 'the neighborhood market.' How quaint is that? We took our time browsing the shelves of foie and terrine, wine, and other fine foods, but ultimately we went for the duck confit sandwich. The guys at the counter were working that duck confit, and the smell of duck fat and sizzling confit just takes over. They really stuff the fluffy, sweet roll with a ton of duck and cheese. It was very delicious and the flavors were very strong. I almost want to give it a 5/5, except the duck was quite salty, and the saltiness builds up throughout the meal. Imagine something akin to a Chinese baked pork bun, the kind in a sweet bun with a shiny glaze on top, except this has duck and cheese instead of pork.

You know that your cheesemonger is serious when they can tell you the names of some of the farmers that raised the animals that made the cheese that you're eating.

British affineurs (an affineur is one who ages cheese and purveys it) can certainly hold their head up high on this continent of great cheeses Arthur Alsop and Nicholas Walker make their cheese down in East Sussex and they've got quite a line up ranging from soft cheeses like camembert to blues My personal favourite is their award winning Mayfield which won a Gold medal at the 2010 British CHeese Awards and the Gold medal at the 2011 World Cheese Awards.

Jumi (pronounced YOU-ME) is located in Borough Market, a bustling, historic market in central…read moreLondon that focuses on quality food and sustainable production. They are a producer/selector of artisan cheeses from Switzerland and are changing the way people think about Swiss Cheese. All of the unique products at Jumi Cheese are produced by four family-run dairies in the Emmental region of Switzerland. The cows that supply the milk for Jumi's dairies feed on fresh grass and hay, and the farmers start and end the process by hand. Their 'stall' is located in the Three Crown Square section of Borough Market and features a range of cheeses like Belper Knolle, a specialty of theirs, spahn, goat cheese, truffle cheese and more. They first came on my radar when I saw a video on social media featuring their 'brain cheese.' The cheese resembles small mammalian brains at various stages of decay with it's fuzzy layer of blue mold surrounding the fist size balls. This one of the mouldiest cheeses you can buy in the UK and for some strange strange reason.... I just had to try it. And so, I've had this bookmarked for years for the moment I'd be back in London. At first glance, the Blue Brain cheese looked a bit intimidating. Are we sure about this? Will my stomach survive this? The questions tried to dissuade us to no avail. At about £9.90, the cheese was more affordable than I anticipated. We bought one for the road and magically, it mostly survived hours in our bag, lol. If you plan on sightseeing more after the market, I'd suggest bringing a smaller cooler or find a small bag of ice or frozen veggies in a nearby store to keep it cool. Once we got home, we dug in. The cheese was very pungent! And despite it's appearance, this had to be one of the smoothest, most flavorful blue cheese I've ever had. Wow, I was pretty amazed and happy that we went for it. The flavor is strong, but not overwhelming and I honestly really liked it. We paired it with some crackers and jam (apricot or peach, can't remember which exactly) and it was the perfect way to end our evening. For the food adventurous, I'd definitely recommend trying the blue brain cheese ;)

If you're a regular there and you don't remember seeing a sign saying Italainate, it's because there isn't one! People know it as the Parma Ham and Mozzarella Stall. Indeed , it is listed as such on the Borough Market website As its nickname suggest, they specialise in just 2 products but the mozzarella and Parma ham are the very bst quality, imported directly from Italy. The stallholder, Philip Crouch sources directly from the producer, Saint Ilario The mozzarella is an unpasteurised buffalo mozzarella from Campagnia - they come in 100g and 250g sizes as well as in mini balls. They also do a delicious burrata, which has cream added into the cheese-making process to make the cheese even more creamy The Parma ham has an amazing depth of flavour - I actually prefer it to the more revered Iberico ham. This is moister and trades some saltiness for flavour. You can either buy the ham in sealed packs which is better if you want to keep it. However, I prefer to to get the freshly sliced ham which is better if you will consume it within a few days - doesn't usually last that long in my house So, when you're in Borough Market, swing round to their stall in the Green Market and try a sample. You'll be hooked!
