Bread-Bakers v113.n008.1

I think I asked for something like this a while ago, but if I got 
replies, I've lost them (along with my mind).

There used to be a bakery near where I worked that had what they 
called 'Italian Cheese Bread'.  It was a braided bread, with cheese 
in the crust.

Soft on the inside, mildly crunchy on the outside.

Has anyone run into this bread (or something similar), and might you 
share a recipe?

Thank you!
