Finally....EVERYTHING Cheese!

I know, I know - I've already mentioned this great cheese store in other blogs, but never had the chance to highlight the store in a dedicated blog - so here it is!  If you are looking for something beyond what your local grocery stores carries, a local cheese, fresh selection and high quality products, this should be your first stop in Edmonton! 

Taken from the entrepreneurs themselves: "We endeavour to carry over 100 cheeses from around the world, including a large variety of best-in-class Canadian cheeses and the classics from Europe. To complement the cheeses, we have a carefully chosen selection of other fine foods, including olives, charcuterie, pate and foie gras, crackers, olive oils and vinegars, pastas and pasta sauces, various condiments and fine chocolate. We also carry a beautiful array of accessories for entertaining and cheese related tools such as knives and cheese boards.

Finally, we can help you select cheese and accompaniments for the perfect cheese platter or prepare one that is ready to go. For gift giving, we can enclose a selection of our products in a simple but classic gable box to our signature silver baffle boxes with red sateen ribbon, to a rustic pine crate. Gift boxes can be made to suit any price point and personality, and all of them will delight your foodie friend or the hard-to-buy for family member!
We endeavour to be your friendly, neighbourhood, one-stop gourmet food shop and your first destination for fine cheese."

I've been to Everything Cheese about a half dozen times this year and found the service to be friendly and knowledgeable and the selection is great!  It was a critical stop for me to prepare a French cheese platter for Hubby's birthday and not only were my gourmet selections there, they were able to help me create a diverse platter after David's approval on the samples!  A bit more expensive than Sobeys or the Italian Centre Shop, but the quality, taste and diversity is second to none in our fine town!

Even more exciting is their launch into wine tastings and highlighting local chefs!  Here is a list of current events taking place at Everything Cheese:

• Our next Cheese Tasting Evening is Tuesday, April 26 at 7 pm
• Royal Wedding - British Isles Cheeses - Taste traditional, farmstead British cheeses with wine pairings by Vines. Limited space, so please book your spot at the store. $40 per person. The next date is Tuesday May 24
