The cheese stands alone
Last night on South Shore Live we had a chance to sample some UH-MAZING cheeses from the Bloomy Rind cheese shop in Hingham Square. Robert and Mary have a love for great food and they really know cheese! Stan, Noonan and I sampled an awesomely buttery camembert and a really great cheddar from VT! The breads and other accompaniments really play a key role in setting the stage for the shining star that is cheese…you need some great, crusty and flavorful breads and a few add-ons like chutney, nuts or dried fruit to help make your cheese plate really sing.
Sound confusing? It’s not! But head to The Bloomy Rind for help from Robert and Mary!
The Entourage hit Caffe Tosca in Hingham and a fun time was had by all! It was a gorgeous night on the south shore and we got an early start to our evening – because we knew we had a lot of eating ahead of us! We met Chef Tony for a quick hello before we sat by the window for our meal. With tasty libations from the bar in hand we were treated to our first course: a chilled strawberry soup with basil. This dish is from the lunch menu but Chef Tony knew we’d love it – and it was amazing. With a silky texture, the fresh strawberry soup was so delicious and light. The shredded basil was the most surprising but most perfect compliment!
