Euphoria Times Three - Wednesday, 30 October

One of my very favorite cheeses is Brillat-Savarin, a soft and velvety 75% fat creamy-yet-zingy and slightly salty cow's milk cheese eaten young.  I had read that you could buy Brilliat-Savarin with an embedded layer of black truffles in Paris at this time of year, and sure enough, they had it at the cheese shop around the corner.

Wow! It blew me away. Euphoria times two.  I think that little bits of flesh from the top of my head must be stuck to the beams in the ceiling.

And this half-wheel cost me just 5 euros! Euphoria times three. I picked up a decent bottle of Bordeaux today for 11 euros (2010 Chateau Goubau) and one of Eric Kayser's fabulous "baguette cereal" (whole grain with sesame and poppy seeds). This will certainly tide me over until dinner late tonight. Or who knows, it might take the place of dinner!
