Another Grilled Fresh Fig Idea

We've been consuming grilled pancetta-wrapped figs as often as our local stores have managed to have the figs in stock. Now the current issue of Bon Appetit has another intriguing idea: a dessert cheese platter consisting of grilled fresh fig halves accompanied by grilled bread slices, assorted cheeses, and maybe some honey, nuts, and dried fruit. Sounds like a dessert fit for a feast. BTW, the Pearl Street Whole Foods store had fresh brown figs in stock today, and selling for $5.99/lb, a better price than Sunflower's advertised sale price of $3.99 for an 8 oz container. Although, come to think of it, the ones at Sunflower are organic, and I don't believe the ones at Whole Foods were.
