At Chez Virginie, the cheeses are arranged in beautiful displays. D store has been a cheese shop since 1900. Virginie, the present owner, inherited the cheese business from her father. The stacks of cheeses I actually have a very strict order and hidden procdess to their design. The store carries only raw milk cheeses, which doesn’t seem to have an impact on the range of options available. Virginie manages the underground cheese caves (wow), ensuring their product is always top notch.
