With wine:
It is a great pleasure to open a bottle of good red or white Burgundy
in the evening and simply have cheese and baguette with it. Besides the
excellent Brie de Meaux, Comté and sheeps' cheese, Burgundian
cheese also tastes very well. For example: the famous Epoisses,
Cîteaux, or a Ami de Chambertin, a strong, intense
cheese with no retained smell that is probably very close to the German
Romadurs. There is also plenty of local goat's cheeses. Fore these there
is the rule: The more unsighty, the better. Some of them are covered with
ash, and many of them are teeming with white and green mould, and often
there is still straw hanging down... excellent shops where you can buy
local cheeses are located in Beaune, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Dijon. Try
them!
