This festival will feature six of this spring’s best globally selected artisan cheeses with those same cheeses cooked in various appetizers. Some of the items include a Piave Vecchio and Pancetta Mini Grilled Cheese Sandwiches; Mini Valdeon Blue Cheese Burgers on Brioche and Four Year Aged Gouda Mini Mac & Cheese.
