After traveling through Europe, I developed a passion for cheese and wine. I attended cheese school in New York (Artisanal) and The Cheese School of San Francisco. Then I opened up a shop on the trendy and popular Las Olas Boulevard in Ft. Lauderdale. The shop provided an intimate European-style setting where we specialized in cheese and wine pairings. We also offered a bistro menu featuring our award-winning gourmet sandwiches and salads. Weekly classes were offered that focused on education, tasting of cheeses and wine pairings. We also hosted private parties and events in our wine country-inspired tasting room.
