Have you seen my headline? It says "cheese please." In other words... this place is my mecca, my heaven, my paradise.
Much better than the famous Smelly Cheese Shop in my opinion. Maybe the variety isn't as expansive but it gets the job done. They had two tasting stations set up with about 9-10 different cheeses we could try. I tried about 8 of them and there was only 1 that I wasn't a fan of. The marinated soft cheese in sun dried tomato was heavenly and their brie? Holy cow (pun intended). The goat's cheese was smooth and subtle unlike some overpowering goat varieties.
They also have a wide variety of jams, oils and chutneys to try. I tried a few and wanted to purchase two of the oils but at $25 a pop I couldn't justify it. Instead I got a hot and spicy green chilli jam for $18 bucks.
My advice? Skip the overcrowded, underwhelming Smelly Cheese Shop and head here for the friendly service, abundant samples and delicious cheese and homemade oils and jams. read more
