Further research for my new book 'London Cheese Guide' found me in Camberwell Green at the beautiful @gladwellslondon - grocery, deli, wine merchant, artisan butcher, cheesemonger, cafe - it's brilliant. Get down to SE London.

Possibly one of the best ranges of French foods from @chezfrancisetsylvie every Wednesday at Swiss Cottage. Tried some new cheeses for the first time - Osaba Peio and Esqurrou from Basque Country and Le Chebris from the Pyrénées

Have you tried Big Cheese Walk yet - options to have a long afternoon exploring backstreets, learning obscure history, seeing new sights and sampling, tasting and enjoying a LOT of cheeses in Chelsea, West End or The City. Link in bio.

A few highlights from this week's Big Cheese Walk in The City. Three hours of history, legend, sightseeing and a total of eleven (yes eleven) cheeses - sampled, tasted, enjoyed #bigcheesewalks #citytour #londoncheese #foodtour

My first (but not last) visit to the delightful @victoriascheese in Ely. Great to see my books 'in the wild' and even managed to sell one to a customer! This beautiful cheesemonger is recommended in my books and if you are ever anywhere near, you really must pay a visit.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

Very sad to visit a 'leading London retailer' today and find them woefully short of British cheeses. None of the following - Lancashire, Cheshire, Wensleydale, Red Leicester, Caerphilly, Dbl Gloucester and not even a proper Cheddar (only waxed truckles). Should be ashamed of themselves.

As Cheese Lover and an International Cheese Judge, I have to taste many different things. Well this sounds strange, is kinda weird but strangely addictive.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

Weekend visit to one of the capital's leading cheesemongers @lafromagerie in Marylebone. This temple of artisan tastes and flavours is clearly a key entry in my next book 'London Cheese Guide' along with their fabulous shops in Bloomsbury and Highbury.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

There are some lovely places for cheese lovers in London @localcheesecave in Wimbledon - going to visit one evening soon.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

Over 50 years of selling cheese to the good folk of Barnes - a hidden gem well worth seeking out

Visiting a few more farmer's markets today as part of research for the new book 'London Cheese Guide' @bigwheelcheese @londonfarmersmarkets (Wimbledon) @barnesfarmersmarket @cornish_gouda_co @bathsoftcheese

Out in SW London today researching my new book 'London Cheese Guide'. Came across what is possible the best selection of Italian cheeses in London @prezzemoloevitaleuk in Wimbledon.

Cheese Tribe I need your help - which cover do you prefer or which background colour or which map, with or without the cheese? You will be influencing the new book cover (PS - due out for Easter I hope)

No matter how many times I walk through Chelsea, I can't fail to be moved by the grandeur of the iconic Michelin House.

Further research for my next book 'London Cheese Guide' took me to Camden Passage in Islington where I found probably the best value cheese toasties in London (or anywhere) - hand made by Steve @pistachioandpickle. Fabulous cheese counter as well and seating outside or upstairs. What a find!

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 19/01/2025

Can't wait to try this wine made by Dermot Sugrue at Sugrue South Downs. A very generous gift from Dan at Godfrey C Williams & Son - thank you mate. Anyone want to suggest a pairing idea?

I am currently writing London Cheese Guide - featuring cheesemongers, cheesemakers, markets and delis with great quality cheese counters. If you think I may have missed a great one that you know of, please contact me through here......

I really enjoyed having a long chat with @stevecheesewine.bsky.social this morning. Thanks so much for the books and all the tips: Chiswick Cheese Market, Spa Terminus and the Breadboard museum here I come!

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

I am not allowed to have favourite cheesemakers, but if I did, no doubt these two would be on the list @felthamsfarm @bevistandairy both @londonfarmersmarkets last weekend at Parliament Hill market (every Saturday)

Cheese Spotting @londonfarmersmarkets at the weekend - crisp sunny day at West Hampstead (every Saturday). Some really top British cheeses from @nutknowle @trethowanbrothers @bathsoftcheese @brinkworthdairy

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

Cheese Spotting in London again yesterday at @selfridgesfood @linastores and @terroni_of_clerkenwell - so many fabulous cheese places in London - in fact the subject of my next book - watch this space. PS - best cheese place in London is this coming Sunday 19th Jan @chiswickcheesemarket - it's FAB.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

OK so I cheated and bought Japanese snacks from @waitrose menyū range (not bad at all) but they paired so well with this exciting wine from the nice geniuses @biddendenvineyard . Yes, you read that right, English Gewürztraminer

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 20/12/2024

Possibly Britain's newest cheese, Ravensworth made by Nicola Robinson @stjamescheese and seen here 'in the wild' @chiswickcheesemarket being sold by the wonderful Justin @no2poundstreet

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 20/12/2024

Huge thank you to the awfully nice people @clawsonfarms for sending me a wonderful selection of their cheeses to taste, sample, eat, review over the coming few days.

Lucky Marcel - the great new cheese from @felthamsfarm (makers of Renegade Monk, Rebel Nun, La Fresca Margarita & Gert Lush). Deliciously meltingly soft and ooooozzzy in the style of St Marcellin. Wonderful with lightly oaked Chardonnay - preferably English.

Steve Parker Cheese and Wine @stevecheesewine.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

What would be on YOUR favourite festive cheeseboard (5 cheeses). Signed copies of two of my books for the best (my decision) cheese board of British Cheeses. Forward to your friends abroad for another prize of non-British.

English Chardonnay at its best - crisp, fresh, clean but with the faintest hint of old oak. Don’t think @greyfriarsvineyard are here yet but seek them out.
