One of the things we love about getting our food from the Sidings is that there's always something new and interesting to try. We wandered past the Celtic Bakers who were selling an array of sourdoughs and Chez Francis & Sylvie La Fromagerie who had the most wonderful selection soft cream cheese. We took some of both away with us and paired it up with some marinated ginger and dried dates for a nice quick lunch.
