Coal Drops Yard in London has some new friends. Their names are Morty and Bob and they’re doing something few have tried before: pairing grilled cheese and wine. The result? Why hasn’t anyone done this before?

They’re the hot sandwich bosses and have introduced a brand new concept by way of an informal monthly event that will take place at the restaurant, located in King’s Cross’ new cultural hub.

Four wines will be paired with four of Morty and Bob’s favourite toasted sangers like:

• Straight Up’ M&B Classic (sourdough, Gruyère cheese sauce, M&Bs special Neals Yard Dairy Cheddar Blend, spring onion and red onion); The others are based on the classic with added delicious fillings
• Mushroom includes all the cheesiness plus roast wild mushrooms, wild garlic pesto & truffle with Berkswell Cheese shavings on top
• The Brocc also has the M&B classic cheese fillings but its grilled in focaccia with braised purple sprouting broccoli, romesco sauce and toasted almonds
• The Lamb is pitta pockets full of NYD cheese mix, spiced Lamb, fresh mint and crumbled feta. Just in case you hadn’t had enough cheese, dessert includes British Burrata, hazelnuts and honey.

Think of it as a wine tasting, just with comfort food, carbs and a whole lot of ease.
