"Quatrehomme is a family-run institution: Marie Quatrehomme became France’s first female Meilleur Ouvrier de France (best craftsperson in France) in 2000. Today, her children carry the torch. There are a handful of cheese shops throughout Paris, but the flagship in the 7th is our go-to thanks to its open-plan layout, which allows you to linger over slabs of nutty Comté or wedges of rare Bleu de Termignon before feeling the pressure to buy. Behind the glass counter lining the back of the shop, you’ll find house specialties like a pumpkin-colored smoked goat cheese crottin or a Camembert topped with all manner of dried fruit, nuts, and even a touch of chocolate." - Emily Monaco
