Message: | After trying Bristol Farms on Westwood Blvd., (which didn't have any of the cheeses that I wanted) and Whole Foods on San Vicente in Brentwood (whose cheeses were overpriced), I came home and called the Beverly Hills Cheese Shop. They quoted me $15/lb for each-- Gruyere, Emmenthaler, and Appenzeller. These were way overpriced, as far as I was concerned. I then called Trader Joe's, and they quoted me $5.99/lb for the Gruyere, $3.99/lb for the Emmenthaler, and $8.29/lb for the Appenzeller, which was FAR more reasonable. I think you know what I ended up doing. I look forward to a fantastic fondue fest tonight! Oh, and had I been in Berkeley (which is where I spend most of the year), I would have gone to the Cheese Board...but it too is expensive, but I do like it. I think in the future, I'll just stick with TJ's. Thanks for all your help! |
