Goat Brie and Rosemary Bread

Once again, Bushel and Peck's has affirmed itself as my favorite place in the town of Beloit.
I just tried goat's milk brie from there for the first time, and loved it. Somewhat to my surprise, it is fabulous paired with their rosemary garlic bread. The cheese is half the price of normal brie and has a clean, almost soapy flavor that is a great contrast to the rich, fatty nature of brie. The rosemary bread had a surprising lack of garlickiness, despite what it said on the label, but was nonetheless very appetizing stuff. I was worried at first that the two wouldn't pair well, and nearly bought another bread because of it, but it looked so good that I just couldn't pass it up.
This excellent pairing is one of the few things that makes up for the fact that I barely got to eat lunch and that the food in Commons is usually terribly boring or just plain bad.
