Ok, I've been a bad blogger, no posts for a while and this is supposed to be a blog about food in Dorset, but I can't resist sharing my photos from Borough Market in London. If I had one wish about Dorset it would be to have something like this on our doorstep rather than having to jump on a train for three hours and pay the equivalent of an extravagent lunch for two for the privilege of getting there. I am hoping that some entreprenuerial foodies out there will get wind of the idea and get something going. Surely there is a demand for it?
What I love about this market is that everything looked so well presented and there is so much going on.
Give any local fishermen any ideas? How about a gourmet food market to sell your wares?
Bakers and patissieres in Dorset? How about a gourmet food market so you can show everyone what they are missing?
Local organic veg growers? Did you know there is nowhere to buy farm fresh organic free range eggs in Weymouth that aren't from a supermarket? If there are please let me know. We are crying out for fresh eggs delivered to our local shops rather than having to drive out of the town.
These would be fab with a cup of fresh coffee, anyone passionate about good coffee? Fancy treating us to your wares?
The raclette is perfect for the gourmet food market. It's fun to watch and the cheese smells divine. There was a queue of hungry cheese lovers patiently waiting for their turn. Such a hit at food markets.
Dorset cheesemakers, specialist cheese importers, perhaps you could show all those people in Dorset what we are missing when we pick up another plastic wrapped block of cheese?
