Yes, Cheese is VERY sexy!
According to the response to our Sexy Cheese Class this past Wednesday, we learned something too…sexy cheese is where it’s at! Our pre-Valentine’s Day class was sold out (thanks in part to a little help from Daily Candy and Time Out New York in “spreading the curd”) and made for a fun, festive V-day pre-cursor for the always inquisitive cosmopolitan types looking for a new way celebrate love. Complete with champagne, roses and chocolate covered Strawberries, this tasting class featured some stunning Artisanal cheeses such as a decadent triple-crème-style, Pierre Robert, a silky, brandy-washed Epoisse and an award-winning, leaf wrapped, Rogue River Blue. Some of the evenings perfect pairings included Parmigiano Reggiano Cravero with Mumm Joyesse Champagne and creamy Cypress Grove Chevre, Purple Haze, paired with Kurt Darting Pfalz Ungsteiner Spatlese Riesling (say that 5 times fast). As always Fromager Waldemar Albrecht’s passion was contagious and his depth of knowledge, impressive but never intimidating. With his ode to the sexiest Cheeses, he created a unique and memorable Valentine’s Celebration for all!
Join us next month for another special holiday class, Erin Go Braugh: Irish Cheese for St. Patrick’s! on Thursday, March 13th!
