Le Fromager De Pekin

[liuzhou]

Does anyone have any experience on this outfit.

A Chinese cheesemaker making artisanal French cheeses in Beijing.

Website in English, Chinese or French.

I'm particularly interested in their mail order service. One friend in Shanghai has ordered cheese with no problems, but I'd be interested to know if anyone else has any experience or thoughts.

I remember buying their cheese when I lived closed to 箭厂胡同。Back then, they certainly didn't have such a big selection (I would have killed for some good tomme...) - in fact, I only remember the little grey one. That one I bought a couple of times though, it was nice to have a non-industrial cheese for decent prices.

No experience with their mail order service though.

箭厂胡同

What an awesome Hutong that sounds like

Thanks gougou. I will just take a chance and see what happens.

No personal experience, but I know they've been in business for some years, so they can't be that bad.

If you like martial hutong names, there's also a 火药局胡同.

Hmmm.

I'm not about to name names, but I can think of many companies which are irredeemably bad, but have been in business for years, decades or even centuries.

But I know what you mean!
