At the cheese specialty store "DAIGOMI" in Minami Aoyama, a "cheese platter" created in collaboration with the computer maker "mouse computer" is provided free of charge. For a limited time until April 29, all customers who come to the store are eligible.
An assortment of cheese in the shape of a mouse computer logo and cheese in the image of a computer keyboard. In the background of this collaboration, there was a story that "the" cheese mark "on the signboard of Mouse Computer Akihabara store disappeared and the staff of DAIGOMI discovered it."
The cheese in the shape of the logo mark is made by melting domestic Gouda cheese once, mixing it with chopped takuan, and then hardening it again. You can enjoy the texture that melts in your mouth and the unique taste of Takuan's sweetness and richness of cheese. Takuan's chewy texture is an accent.
On the other hand, the dice-shaped cheese with a keyboard motif is finished in black by adding squid ink. There are five, each with the alphabet "M" "O" "U" "S" "E". With a moist and smooth texture, there is no habit or odor peculiar to squid ink, and it seems to go well with wine!
◆ DAIGOMI's signboard menu
By the way, DAIGOMI's signature menu is "Cheese shop serious stone-grilled cheese risotto" (2,780 yen). A risotto made with 4 types of cheese (Parmesan, Camembert, Mozzarella, and super-aged blue), topped with raclette cheese in front of the customer.The ingredients include juicy bacon and diced onions, as well as "sofrit", which is chopped and fried flavored vegetables such as celery and carrots.
Mix the whole thing well and bring it to your mouth ... it's just a lump of umami! The mellow aroma of all five types of cheese, the mellow richness, and the umami with moderate saltiness spread throughout the mouth, and the black pepper further enhances the deliciousness.
In addition to a mellow mouthfeel, a sticky texture, a thick texture, and a slightly rough and rich texture, the chewy texture of raclette cheese that has not yet melted and remains chewy will change.
The cheese is rich and insanely delicious, so it may be just right to share it with 2 or 3 people. Of course, there are some customers who can eat it all by themselves (it's delicious, so I think it's actually possible).
◆ Ahijo for a limited time!
Another recommended menu at this time is "Okayama Prefecture Mushrooms and Camembert Ajillo" (1,280 yen). It is offered for a limited time until around June.Camembert cheese is from Hokkaido. The exodermis is hard and the contents do not melt easily even when heated, so it is suitable for ajillo.
Cheese is thick and has a crispy texture. It melts in your mouth only when you chew it, and the creamy richness spreads. It goes well with plump mushrooms.
Ahijo itself is offered almost all year round, but it seems that mushrooms from Okayama prefecture are used only at this time. It definitely goes well with sake, so if you want to drink wine with delicious cheese, why not go to Minami Aoyama?
