FEATURED CHEESE

Barely Buzzed
Tasting Notes:  From the Beehive Cheese Co. in Utah – Medium-bodied with a nutty flavour and smooth texture. Hand rubbed w/ a Turkish grind of artisan espresso and French lavender. The rub imparts notes of butterscotch, caramel and floral that are prevalent at the rind but tasted throughout the entire cheese.

Friday April 3, 2009 6:00PM - 7:30PM
Cheese Monger's Favorites Cheese & Wine Tasting - A benefit for The Daily Bread and The Daily Bread Legacy Fund
Tickets are $20.00 in advance $30.00 the day of the event
Bring in one canned food for $5.00 off one ticket, one canned food per ticket please! All canned food will go directly to The Daily Bread and 100% of the net proceeds of every ticket sold plus 10% of all purchases during the event will be donated to The Daily Bread Legacy Fund.

What is The Daily Bread? The Daily Bread is a soup kitchen program started in the kitchen of St. James Cathedral in 1975, when the church started a noon feeding program during the Easter season. As the Easter season ended, the church was feeding more than 125 persons per day, and Father David Page realized that some more permanent solution was needed to address community hunger. He contacted the Christian Service Center, which St. James had helped found in 1971. Out of that need, Daily Bread was born on July 1, 1975. Meals were served at a facility at 61 W. Jefferson Street. Champ Williams, founder of Skyline Restaurants agreed to provide the food, a service he provided for more than 1,000,000 meals.

On May 2nd, the Christian Service Center’s Daily Bread Program celebrated the serving of its three millionth free meal! The Daily Bread program serves free noontime meals from soup kitchens and dining facilities in downtown Orlando and Ocoee.

“I am thrilled that we have reached this milestone,” said Christian Service Center Executive Director Robert F. Stuart. “What started as an outreach of a handful of downtown churches has grown to serve hundreds of thousands of people in need her in Central Florida,” Stuart continued.

Last year, our soup kitchens in Orlando and Ocoee teamed to serve almost 125,000 free meals.
While we celebrate the serving of the three millionth meal, the daily focus remains helping those who are hungry in our community, one meal at a time.

“Unfortunately, there are still people who are hungry and in need in our community,” Stuart pointed out. “This program not only gives our clients a meal, but reminds them that someone cares.”

It took 33 years for the Christian Service Center’s Daily Bread Program to reach the 3,000,000 meal milestone. Now the Christian Service Center has set up a Daily Bread Legacy Fund to assure the program’s continuation into the future.

“Serving almost 125,000 meals a year places a severe strain on our facilities,” said Executive Director Robert Stuart. “That’s why we are asking our community to help us create a legacy fund to provide much needed upgrades to our existing facilities and a financial base for handling future needs,” Stuart noted.

As an example, the Christian Service Center needs to replace the tables and chairs in Orlando’s Daily Bread dining room. Each new table is about $155, and heavy-duty folding chairs are about $21each. So the cost of replacing 13 tables and 104 chairs is about $4,200.

“These are just examples of why we are starting the legacy fund,” Stuart pointed out. “We guarantee that any donation of any amount will be put to good use to assure that Daily Bread continues toward a four millionth meal,” Stuart said.

Congratulations Coach Farm Goat Cheese! & New Arrivals

Coach Farm's Triple Cream Wheel wins the Gold at the 2008 Summer Fancy Food Show


Coach Farm has been recognized once again for its fine line of goat cheeses. A national panel of specialty food experts named Coach Farm's Triple Cream Wheel "Outstanding Cheese or Dairy product" at the 2008 sofi awards, part of the National Association for the Specialty Food Trade (NASFT) Summer Fancy Food Show.


Since being first introduced more than twenty years ago, Coach Farm cheeses have consistently won awards and honors at competitions across the country.

We just received a wheel of their delicious Triple Cream Goat Cheese ! $39.50 / LB

OTHER NEW ARRIVALS

Coach Farm Fresh Goat Buttons $4.50 / Each
Coach Farm Aged Goat Sticks $14.00 / Each or $7.50 for half

Saint Marcellin is back - from France $7.50 / Each - A supple cow's milk cheese from Southern France. Soft creamy texture, mushroom aroma and an earthy, buttery flavour. Pairs with Syrah and Champagne.

Esrom - Denmark - $15.00 / LB - This was a customer request, and rather difficult to find, but it is well worth the research! The flavour is quite rich and "aromatic" with a lingering, bitter-in-a-good-way finish. Invented in the 1930's and was for a time named "Danish Port Salut." In fact Esrom is a much more interesting cheese than Port Salut - Come in and taste the difference!

NEW ARRIVALS

NEW CHEESES

Gouda Truffle - Holland $39.50/LB (whoa!! but worth every penny you have to try this one, you will become seriously addicted) Black Italian truffles throughout this amazing cheese lend wonderful taste and aroma to this high-quality, farm-made gouda. Made on a small farm in Noord, Holland. We paired this cheese with our Foris Dry Gewurztraminer - yummmmmm

Bleu D’Auvergne - France $14.00/LB A name-protected cheese from the Auvergne region in south-central France, Bleu d'Auvergne is made in the traditional manner from raw cow's milk and features blue veining throughout. Its moist, sticky rind conceals a soft paste possessing a grassy, herbaceous, and (with age) spicy, pungent taste. Our French organic Alsatian Riesling pairs perfectly.

Lemon White Stilton - England $26.50 / LB This unusual dessert cheese came in from a customer request. It is made with vegetarian rennant and is dotted with candied lemon peel. It has no blue veining, is mild in flavour with a tangy, sweet lemon taste. Very tasty and will be quite the conversation piece on a cheese tray!

Kasseri - Greece $24.00 / LB Made from the fresh milk of free-ranging sheep and goats. Mt. Vikos Kasseri is made during months when grasses are green for a sweet flavor. No antibiotics are given the animals (Americans call this organic, the good folks at Mt Vikos call it normal) Mt. Vikos contains no preservatives, additives, or calcium chloride. It is the "melting cheese" of Greece. The curds are hand-kneaded. The cheese rounds are placed in special aging rooms for six months. Though kasseri has been made for centuries, Americans are just discovering this super cheese that tastes like a cross bewteen feta and cheddar - with the texture being more like a cheddar.

Rouge et Noir Triple Crème Brie - California, USA $13.00/Each This classic award winning California Brie is creamy from the natural ripening process, with an even yellow color throughout. 100% Jersey milk used; it is at the same time delicate in its buttery first-flavor, with a pleasant robust aftertaste.

Rouge et Noir La Petite Crème - California, USA $8.00/Each A delicate “dessert” cheese that is rich yet mild, with a soft and creamy texture that melts in your mouth. This romantic cheese when young with a firm pate, is perfect for brunch or as an after dinner treat.

NEW NOT-CHEESE

Lamb & Beef Sausage Saucisse Merguez D’Agneau et Boeuf - San Francisco, California, USA $12.50 / Each Spicy North African lamb and beef sausage made in the classic French style from Marcel et Henri. Must be cooked thoroughly.

Honey Combs - $18.00 / Each Back by popular demand. These beautiful honeycombs are entirely edible and look stunning on a cheese tray. If you haven't tried honeycombs with goat cheese you don't know what you are missing!

New Arrivals and Party Ideas

Our importers and distributors can't believe how quickly we have reordered cheese, but thanks to every one's wonderful support - we are reordering for the 3rd time in... 12 days!

NEW IN THE CHEESE SHOP

Stilton Thomas Hoe Stevenson Stilton is in! Thomas Hoe Stevenson was one of the original Stilton Cheesemakers from the Heart of the Vale of Belvoir. This amazing, popular blue cheese is mellow yet tangy with a well balanced flavour and creamy texture.

Leyden - from Holland, a lovely firm cow's milk cheese that is infused with real cumin seeds - and lots of them. Leyden is one of Holland's favorite snacking cheeses - and indeed it is tasty. I am going to try cooking with it - perhaps melting it over chicken or grating it over a nice hearty vegetable soup - I'll let you know!

Truffle Tremor - From Cypress Grove Farms the classic flavor of truffle meets the velvety perfection of ripened goat milk cheese. Earthy, elegant, and sophisticated, it's sure to make even the most distinguished taste buds shake! We got one 3(ish) pound wheel in on Friday morning and by 7pm Friday night we were left with less than a pound. Fear not - we've already placed an order for 2 more wheels. If you would like to reserve a wedge please give us a call (407) 644-7296. Reserves are taken in 1/2 pound increments $27.50/pound.

Purple Haze - Fresh chevre also from Cypress Grove (we love them!) Flavoured with wild fennel pollen and lavender this cheese is smooth, creamy and quite unique. Comes in small disks that are about 6 ounces at $9.00 each - they just about sold out in less than 2 days, but the reorder will be in this week as well and we are taking preorder reserves for this one too (407) 644-7296 - or fax your request to (407) 644-7242 - OR email me at kirsten@thecheeseshoponpark.com

Vermont Goat Cheeses Bijou & Bonne Bouche - An American line of ripened goats’ cheeses, Bijou is mild, sweet and creamy with notes of fresh flowers, citrus and hazelnuts. Bonne Bouche has a sharper goat flavor and is coated in ash. Both are great in salad or on a cheese plate with nuts, a drizzle of honey and dried fruit.Vermont Butter & Cheese Company crafts artisanal dairy products in the European style through a vital link with local farms. Based in the town of Websterville, the company supports a network of more than 20 family farms, providing milk and meeting the highest standards of purity. While Vermont Butter & Cheese Company has earned worldwide recognition, the company is proudest of its contribution to the health of local agriculture. After all, as Allison learned on a family farm in Frangource, quality originates at the source – with the people who work the land and the pride they take in the yield.

CHARCUTERIE [not cheese]

Palacios Chorizo - Hot or mild Spanish Sausage. This is the real deal! Made from a generations-old recipe by a family owned company in La Rioja. Distinctive smoked paprika sets Spanish chorizo apart from sausages of any other country. The first authentic chorizo available in the US. Featured in the New York Times and Wine Spectator. Fully dry-cured, ready to eat with your favorite cheese and wine. Simply slice and serve.

SUPER BOWL SUNDAY IS FEBRUARY 3RD (2 WEEKS) ORDER YOUR CHEESE PLATTERS NOW AS PROVISIONS ARE LIMITED. Pick up only, we don't deliver.


Don't settle for boring, flavorless no-name cheese for your superbowl party. Treat your guests (and yourself) to hand crafted English cheddar, French Raclette (think adult grilled cheese sandwiches) or a cave aged Swiss Gruyere so strong it will bring tears to your Dragonhead Scottish Black Stout (which we also carry). Pair everything with the authentic Spanish Chorizo and stuffed Greek olives.

Seriously fabulous gourmet fare. You're worth it. Call early (407) 644-7296

Hello SUPERBOWL!
