Cheese pop up for Christmas in Shawlands

Cheese lovers of Glasgow Southside rejoice! There's no need to be sad about Wholefoods no longer being here for a Christmas cheese fix and no need to head to the west end either as Shawlands now has its own pop-up cheese shop in time for Christmas.

Starter Culture can be found at 1052 Pollokshaws Rd (formerly John Stewart Jewellers) between the Co-op and Salt & Vinegar. It's open now until 24th December for all your cheesy needs. We popped along today to get our cheese fix. Being a pop-up that just opened it did look a bit dark so we weren't sure if it actually was open so give a door a push, don't walk on past like we almost did!

It's a small selection of cheese, but what's there looks delicious. The oozing Gorgonzola caught our eye. Order it by the scoop!

And so a couple of scoops of Gorgonzola were ordered, along with Westray Wife, Vacherin and Muckle Coo vegan mozzarella were ordered.

👍 Thumbs up from us for the cheese, and the service. and what about the vegan mozzarella? We tasted some of the basil-infused variety (they also have chilli-infused) and it was surprisingly good! We probably wouldn't have guessed that it wasn't real cheese if we didn't already know!
