Kappacasein, London makes the best cheese toastie in the world. Based on Park street in Borough Market, Kappacasein has been serving Raclettes and toasted cheese sandwiches since 2000 using a mix of Montgomery cheddar, Ogleshield, Comte cheeses, five types of onions and Poilane sourdough bread for the toasties and Ogleshield cheese for the Raclette.

Kappacasein’s owner Bill Oglethorpe developed Ogleshield cheese in collaboration with Somerset dairy farmer Jamie Montgomery, whose 150 Jersey cows produce the rich, unpasteurised, full-fat milk that gives the mature cheese its distinctive flavour. Based in Bermondsey, the Kappacasein dairy has been in production since 2008. Apart from using a 100 year old (300L) copper vat that was brought over all the way from Switzerland, the milk is sourced from the Commonwork organic farm in Kent. Today, they make the following five types of cheeses: Bermondsey Hardpressed, Bermondsey Frier, Bermondsey Red, Spalactic and ricotta. The Kappacasein Cheese Toastie is not only the best sandwich in London, it is one of the tastiest sandwiches in the world – enjoyed by foodies from all over England’s capital city.
