The Cheese Society: Double-baked cheese soufflé

I’ve never eaten a soufflé before but today I took the plunge; and it certainly paid off with this double-baked soufflé from The Cheese Society.

Served in a what seemed like a lake of parmesan sauce, this soufflé was extremely rich and far too easy to stomach.

The spongy soufflé looked delicious when it turned up and I couldn’t wait to tuck in.

The eggy flavour of the soufflé was a little overpowering but when covered with the cheese sauce it was a triumph for the tastebuds.

There was perhaps a little too much parmesan sauce in proportion to the soufflé; but that wasn’t a problem with the complimentary bread to mop up with. The soufflé didn’t appear too filling to begin with but once you get stuck in you soon realise that you don’t have room for dessert.

The side salad was pleasant enough but the dressing was a little vinegary. Perhaps a choice of dressings would have offered a better experience.

Overall The Cheese Society was a brilliant little café with a fantastic selection of cheese based foods.
