Laurent Bonjour wishes all a Happy Mother’s Day!

SPECIAL OF THE MONTH: $2 off per pound of CANTAL VIEUX, one of the oldest cheeses ever made. Julius Caesar was reportedly eating this cheese when he conquered Gaul, which is France now.

– an earthy, milky paste with a red wine flavor
– bathed in red grape must for 45 days

Valencay and Selles-sur-Cher
– a rarefied sour savor with a salty flavor which turns to a sweetness nuttiness

Fleur de Maqui
– a slightly acidic and sour sheep’s milk from Corsica
– a mild earthy flavor that becomes sharper with age

Pont l’Eveque
– well known for its bouquet
– with a strong pungent aroma that is not for the timid

Saucisson Sec / Dry Salami
