Postcard from France: Say Fromage aka Cheese

Postcard from France: Say Fromage aka Cheese

When iN France, have a little or even better a lot of cheese – with breakfast, lunch and especially dinner!

The general rule is, the stinkier, the better the cheese, at least when you ask the locals. Most restaurants offer a cheese course as an alternative to a sweet dessert, or both. And: The nicer the place, the better the cheese cart, just like this beauty captured by photographer Elisa Michelet.

Even if there is no cheese course mentioned on the menu, chances are usually excellent that you can get your fix of chevre, camenbert or a local specialty you may have never heard of. Just ask for it: “Fromage, s’il-vous-plaît?”
