Your addiction started out simple. A slice of Kraft on your grilled cheese sandwich, string cheese in your lunchbox. But as the years went on, you began to experiment with sister-samples of Swiss and Provolone. Harmless, but you needed more. Gouda, Brie, Camembert. You were hooked.
When you need your next fromage fix, check out the newly-opened Antonelli’s Cheese Shop. Situated in Hyde Park, this quaint husband/wife owned shop sells cut-to-order cheese of all varieties. Better yet, everything is on a “taste before you buy” basis, so you won’t have to chance it on an unfamilar choice. While there, shop the mix of charcuterie, olives, nuts, chocolates, baguettes, wine and beer, as well as hostess gifts.
If you can’t kick the habit, you might as well just accept your fate, smile, and say cheese.
