"...the best of all was my thin Strasbourg tart. This is an old-fashioned, Franco-German pizza, an elegant, crisp crust dressed with a negligee of sauerkraut, poitrine and Strasbourg sausage. Sensationnel. Ausgezeichnet. A wonderful regional dish that I can’t think you’ll find anywhere else in London. Perfect for lunch." READ REVIEW

"So, having started out laughing, then shaking my head, then feeling sympathy for a well-intentioned anachronism gone wrong, then having to pause mid-review for a sleep, I arrive at the position that L’Art du Fromage is a brilliant little place." READ REVIEW

"The cooking style here at L'Art du Fromage would suit outdoor workers in Siberia very well; the gentry of Chelsea, I suspect, not so much." READ REVIEW

"It is run by charming, earnest French boys you would want to hug, just to reassure them that everything's fine, were it not for the fact that everything isn't really fine." READ REVIEW

My friends and I love cheese and when we heard that a cheese restaurant had opened in London we couldn’t get there quick enough.

It did not disappoint, it was amazing, we couldn’t get enough of it!

I had the munster cheese coated in breadcrumbs served with bayonne ham, walnuts and baby salad leaves. It was deeee-lish.

My friends had the assortment of meats like duck breast and ham etc served with goats cheese on toast – yum, another had a goat cheese roulade with beetroot carpaccio and someone else had snails in garlic.

Then as there were 4 of is 2 of us we shared a fondue and the other 2 had raclette. WOW. It was like we had died and gone to heaven! And it was all you can eat fondue and raclette – ohhh how greedy we were!

The fondue was flambéed in cognac. Seriously, seriously scrummy!

And although we were full to bursting we couldn’t resist, and between us we ordered the cheese ice-cream – you HAVE to try it, and we obviously couldn’t resist the chocolate fondue and it would have been rude not to have had the cheese tasting option.

For cheese lovers this is absolute heaven.

Even if you don’t love cheese as much as we do there’s something for you on the menu.

The service was also really good which added to a really great night.

Can’t wait to go back. Apparently they change the menu every couple of months – of what joy!
