Do you love cheese? If you do, this place is for you: Xavier Fromagerie. We discovered this culinary gem when we visited Toulouse, France last year. It was a cheese-lover’s paradise with its collection of magnificently pungent, fruity and ripe aromas and tastes. Offering subtlety, mildness, character, diversity of aromas and flavors, colors and shapes the essence of France’s different regions come alive. And thankfully to the Internet, you can order some from their generous assortment of cheeses as well as their cheese trays (such as “the moment of delight” and the “end of the meal” board). The website, written in English, can be easily navigated. They do ship to the United States, but of course, you will have to pay some price for this … a price that’s well worth the days of delight.

Xavier: a cheese-lover's paradise
“Comme ils sont ingrats les hommes! Les uns chantent le pieton; d’autres le jus de pommes, d’autres enfin le houblon. Mais aucun ne rend homage a cet enchanteur divin. Qui donc pourrait, sans fromage; gouter biere cidre ou vins? Fromage! Poesie! Bouquet de mes repas, que sentirait la vie, si l’on ne t’avait pas? (Louis-Eugene, dit Victor Meusy Chansonnier)
