Merely one of the vital lovely (and costly) fromageries in Paris. The ladies who run this iconic store are famously intimidating. I occur to like them, nevertheless it took a couple of years earlier than they warmed to me. You shouldn’t go right here in search of an schooling, or perhaps a suggestion. In the event you’re in a position to maintain your individual, nevertheless, you’ll be rewarded with entry to a few of the most scrumptious cheese in Paris. My private favourite is their Ossau-Iraty, an aged sheep’s milk cheese which they promote at two and typically three totally different ages. In the event that they occur to have a model that’s older than 18 months, spend no matter outrageous sum of money they’re asking (think about 15€ for a small hunk) and prepare for all times to alter.

What individuals are saying
Le Figaro (2013) “C’est une petite échoppe de quartier restée dans son jus rétro mais ne vous fiez pas aux apparences, elle voit défiler devant ses bries et ses chèvres tout le Gotha mondain…Nicole Barthélémy affine avec ardour ses fromages, toujours au mieux de leur saison. Nous, on reste accro au Fontainebleau, une tuerie à base de lait de vache, aérienne et mousseuse comme un tulle de mariée, dont c’est ici la grande spécialité.”
