Do It Yourself Room Service

While there is nothing quite as satisfying as ordering room service in a chic boutique hotel at the end of a work travel day, I must say I did a fine job sustaining and making my own plate on a budget last night. Thankfully spending twenty dollars at the nearby Wholefoods provided me with cheese plate for two evenings. A local California blush wine, full bodied paired with 2 cheeses, pita chips and fresh mixed berries.
Cheeses: Pictured (round) Mitica Cana Cabra - goats milk. Very strong flavor almost blue in taste- not for the pedestrian palette. Would have been nice with honey and nuts... Soignon Goat Brie, also goat. Gooey and creamy, has a nice nutty flavour without being too overpowering- great with the berries. An excellent treat at the end of the day. Not pictured- two squares of truffle pig dark chocolat with orange... And goodnight.
