DI BRUNO BROS. — THE CULINARY PIONEER JULY 2015

GETTIN’ HOT WITH YOUR HONEYMade with wildflower honey harvested in New York and New Jersey and infused with chilies, we love Mike’s Hot Honey on cheese, pizza, cocktails, ice cream, and more! Get sweet on this spicy treat, sent to us from Brooklyn, with love.

CONDIMENTS SO GOOD, YOU’LL EAT THEM WITH A SPOONCrown your burgers and dogs with these kingly condiments. The story behind Sir Kensington’s is one of intrigue, royalty, lost recipes, and ingredient simplicity. More importantly, the man created some darn fineketchups, mustards, and mayos.

THE CHEESE

MEET THE MEAT THAT’S GOT IT ALLSmoking Goose’s aptly named The Kitchen Sink is a coarse blend of shoulder, heart, liver, and belly, generously spiced with espelette pepper, yellow mustard, and crushed chilies. Certified organic with no added nitrates, this sausage is handcrafted from happy pigs raised naturally and humanely on independentfarms in Indiana and neighboring states. This isnose-to-tail charcuterie at its finest! Ready to eatcold or toss on the grill for some char marks.

THE MEAT

Alta Badia A FLAVORFUL, SAVORY, MOUNTAIN CHEESE.SMOOTH AND NUTTY, WITH A HINT OF RUSTICITY.

Alta Badia (AL-ta bah-DEE-ah) is produced by a local cooperative in the heavily German-influenced, mountainous region of Northern Italy. This lovely cow’s milk wheel is created in a similar method as neighboring Switzerland’s Gruyere and would be happily at home onyour sandwich or cheese board.

1. THE AZALEA GARDENKelly Drive & Fairmount Ave.

After you run up the Art Museum steps Rocky-style, catch your breath and explore the beautiful four acres of pretty fields and flowers behind the building. Also check out Boathouse Row and The Fairmount Waterworks.

Discuss the flavor profile of dense and velvety Camembert Normandie like you would discuss the nuances of any work of art.

2. LIBERTY LANDS PARK913 - 961 North 3rd Street

Once an urban eyesore, this reclaimed space is now home to a community garden, a children’s playground, and more. The park was created and is maintained by residents in the surrounding neighborhood.

Make your picnic ultra-hip by throwing in the best American cheese around, Pleasant Ridge Reserve. It’s this season’s hottest picnic accessory.

3. JAPANESE GARDENS Lansdowne Dr. & Horticultural Dr.

Fairmount Park is freaking huge so, to avoid getting lost, set out for one of the park’s more exact destinations — the Shofuso Japanese House and Garden.

Achieve ultimate zen by nibbling the buttery Comté Melodie, ayoung cheese with an old soul.

4. RACE STREET PIERRace Street & N. Columbus Blvd.

Perfect for when you tire of wandering around Old City. Sit on the lawn and watch boats cruise the Delaware River. Or lounge upon a park bench, stare at New Jersey,and contemplate the meaning of life.

Snack old school in the old city — grab a hunk of Montgomery’s Farmhouse Cheddar from England, green apples, and pepper jelly. The British are coming... to your picnic!

5. RITTENHOUSE SQUARE18th Street & Walnut Street

The best place to devour the goods you got from our 18th and Chestnut location! A popular destination for tourists and locals alike, this historic park is great for picnicking and people watching. Plus, it’s crazy close to pretty much everything else you want to see in Center City.

A classy park deserves a classy cheese. We recommend Marin Triple Crème Brie with Trufflesand a loaf of rustic bread.

6. WASHINGTON SQUARE7th Street & Walnut Street (pictured above)

A few blocks from our Franklin location on 9th and Sansom, this pretty park has plenty of grass on which to spread your blanket. Plus a fountain, trees, a couple of historical markers, and lots of cute dogs playing with frisbees! What more could you want?

Go native with a local cheese.We suggest the tart and savory Evalon Select, topped with a blobof our Fig and Acacia Honey Jam.
