Stinky Wine Shops Now Serving Cheese
I had an old issue of Food & Wine on my desk, and, leafing through it, I came upon a story about wine shops serving cheese and tapas. As a confirmed nondrinker and serious cheese lover, I applaud this trend.
Here are the shops they wrote about:

I have no suggestions, just wanted to say that Stinky Brooklyn has the best name.

It's a bit of a stretch to call the new Cesar on Piedmont as a "wine shop" just because they have a "mercado" on one side of the restaurant. Cesar is still primarily a tapas restaurant.

Stinky Brooklyn is awesome; they have some GREAT cheese. But there's also a great wine store in NJ called Gary's Wine & Marketplace (just about a half hour outside NYC in Madison and Bernardsville and coming to Wayne) that has over 200 really great cheeses. And they're always sampling. :) Love that.
