Cheese, Gromit!

This morning we took a ride down to the Borough Market, the oldest food market in London (it's newest incarnation predates the American revolution). I wasn't yet shopping for groceries since my move to the flat wasn't quite complete, but I did enjoy a couple of sandwiches and a bottle of New Forest Cider. The place itself wasn't much to speak of in that shows no signs of its long, rich history, but the craftsmanship in all of the products was magnificent. The second of my two sandwiches was a grilled cheese. The cheese was being cut out of the wheel in front of me, the bread was fresh, and the healthy dose of onions and leeks giving the sandwich zest were from the vendor next door. I'm looking forward to numerous return visits.
