Global Cheese

I always drive by Global Cheese on my way to La Tortilleria and never thought to stop in; however, it was the Friday before the Labour Day long weekend so I decided to check it out without expecting much. I was so wrong as the place is a hidden gem!
I’m by no means any type of cheese connoisseur but every sample they gave me was out of this world. The gentleman that was serving me was so friendly and made all types of recommendations. I ended buying four different types of cheeses: merlot cheese, goat Gouda with wild garlic (not your typical Costco or Loblaws goat cheese), a soft Asiago and a really sharp cheddar with caraway seeds — yum. I also picked up some imported olives and Carr’s Water Crackers. Everything came to about $ 28, which I was kind of thinking I went overboard but, when snacking on it all weekend, the quality and taste were second-​to-​none!
The mistake I made was not looking around first but rather choosing a couple of cheeses that they cut for me. It was when I walked around, had I noticed the pre-​cut cheese (such as the Asiago and cheddar) were very, very inexpensive. The small containers of olives that they dish out were only about $ 2.50 each. If you take your time and shop around, you can come out with a bunch of stuff at a decent price.
The store is exceptionally clean, the service was outstanding and there was parking in front — you could always park on Norseman too. Please just note that they only accept cash or debit. I would also double-​check the hours because I’m certain they’re closed on Mondays.
