| - I walked in to try fruity cheeses from shipped from abroad. I was thankful for the lady being welcoming and helped me even if she knew I was there to only try small samples of cheeses. I'm not a cheese snob but I'm tired of regular cheese from the grocery store.
Right away she knew I wanted to try Stilton Cheeses and when I told her I wanted fruity blue cheese, she had me try something from Montreal. She cut the piece of cheese for me and did her best to give me a perfect amount. She knew I was just expanding my knowledge in cheeses and was very enthusiastic about it. She didn't try to cut me a bigger slice than I wanted. It was as small as she can, as what I asked.
I had the Mango Ginger Stilton Cheese from UK(apparently a best seller) and I so recommend it. I want to come back for more. I paired this cheese with white wine (reisling) from Niagara and a simple toast with Avocado. It was perfect guys! The smell of the cheese is amazing, fruity and had a creamy smell.
The fruity blue cheese was also perfect. I had it a little later than when I bought it, I completely forgot. Thankfully it was wrapped and bagged well. I enjoyed this with the egg sandwich. Add bacon if desired. The smell wasn't pungent but was definitely in the cheesy side.
Parking here is not too hectic, it's situated in a plaza near the 401 Salem exit. I didn't find the cheese expensive, I thought the prices were practical. For Antipasto for 50 people it's easy to spend about $100 for the cheese.
There are a few tables and not too many seating. The lighting is okay, it's not bright in there. I was also told that they cater to events, and i find their prep area (behind the counter) clean and organized.
When you buy a piece of cheese, there will be a sticker, to make it easy to remember. On the sticker it has the name of cheese, where it's from, and the price. I remember a brief description included as well.
I like how the cheese I got didn't have the wax part that came with. At some stores they also count the wax to weigh. I'm not sure if it had a wax case and if she took it off before weighing it. But I was pretty happy with it over all, if I were to buy a big piece.
They sell good variety of cheeses, a good alternative when you're not down town Toronto (Kensington Market).
You can also ask them for pairings. They are knowledgeable. They can tell you what wine to pair with it best.
I would come back here again.
