We were able to make selections from over 100 different cheeses as well as a variety of cured meats. The sandwich rivals my other fave from Alain Alain in Paris. It's a small but charming and quintessential Belgian shop. Traditional in every sense of the word. Simply put, it's a cheese lover's paradise. Catherine is extremely kind and patient as are her employees. They offer the ability to taste samples before making decisions. They're very helpful with making said decisions as well. A haven for like minded cheesemongers means the line can sometimes go out the door, especially at lunchtime. It is well worth the wait because so much love and care goes into every transaction with every customer. A most divine experience indeed.

Was so looking forward to our return trip to Brussels and visiting Catherine's. Over our week long stay we managed 3 visits to pick up cheese, freshly sliced deli meat, bead and made to order sandwiches. The cheeses that we selected were so very fresh and the selection to choose from was amazing. Of course my favorite was the truffle. We picked up sandwiches on two occasions and they were basically the same. The second one Catherine added a new little taste with the addition of three small roasted peppers. We had forgotten to ask for arugula and Catherine asked if we wanted it on this one...what a memory. Catherine's is a small place and always very busy. Quality shines throughout. The customers are almost all locals...another great sign. We noticed that when there were about three people inside that the patrons formed a line out of the door. Think out of respect for Catherine. Wish we had had a quality shop like Catherine's in metro Atlanta. We would drive to experience this and here in the hustle and bustle of Brussels there is a gem. Highly recommend. Prices are extremely reasonable. Can't wait to return...sooner than later. Thanks Catherine.

So this meat/cheese shop is a little on the pricier side. Given that, it is worth the visit and…read moreprocurement of cheeses and meats. The purveyor is helpful, polite and insightful.

Ah cheese... so delicious…read more On the suggestion of our guidebook, my husband and I stopped here on a sightseeing walk of Brussels to grab lunch. We opted to go with a few slices of cheese and a baguette, and it was so delicious. There is an overwhelming selection of cheese, and we really had no idea where to start selecting cheese to buy. The woman behind the counter picked two cheeses for us, a cow's milk and a sheep's milk cheese. Both were great and we finished them while walking around Brussels. Our lunch was a little pricey, but totally worth it, along with experience of buying local cheese in a lovely setting.

We had grabbed a baguette from Charli and he even let us borrow a knife to cut and spread our cheese while we sat out in the square. We went back again later in the week to try their sandwiches (the sell out so get there early in the lunch hours) and they were great as well. They take credit card so no concerns there either.

He learned his trade at another famous address and has since become a household name in the business, establishing the best cheese store in Brussels. His specialty? Ripening cheese, and turning it into an amazing end product. From the old to the young, all kinds of cheeses are available to you to choose from. They also do quiche, terrine, croquette and have a good selection of charcuterie. But lets be honest, you are here for the cheese. If you want the high end stuff then they can provide it. A must for Christmas, New Year or any other festive occasion.

She cuts them and weighs them, with selections like foie gras and many, many others (you can tell which words I can understand, and everything else I just pointed and figured if there's only a bit left, it's gotta be good right?) and reading up online how to cook them, I guess you boil them for like 20 min. Except... I never actually got to try the sausages, having missed my alarm and not wanting to miss my flight back to NY, and not able to bring back meat to the states... so sadly I had to leave them behind. But they looked good! (small chunks of like 4-5 sausages, about 6 euros)
