After all, they have trees, parking spaces, a beautiful bridge, famous authors (Gary Shteyngart, Paul Auster, and Colson Whitehead, among others) the Wonder Wheel\u2014and plenty of cheese.<br \/>\nPress a local hard enough and he or she may admit to the occasional pilgrimage across the bridge to Murray\u2019s or a dip into Saxelby Cheesemongers.

The small corner storefront belies the riches inside\u2014150-plus cheeses, curated by co-owner Charlotte Kamin, as well as an extensive selection of things to put on, around, or under them. Half the fun is reading the cheese tags, written by the irreverent, cheese-smitten mongers behind the counter; the other is being led by them to a perfect slice of Hoch Ybrig from Rolf Beeler, a gooey slice of Vermont\u2019s Lazy Lady Buck Hill Sunrise, a goaty square of Stracchino di Capra, or other lesser-known surprises.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Bedford Cheese Shop<\/strong> 229 Bedford Avenue (at N. 4th Street) Williamsburg, NY 718.599.7588<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Blue Apron Foods<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_1806\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/\u201cJ\u201d-at-Blue-Apron-foods.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1806\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1806\" src=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/\u201cJ\u201d-at-Blue-Apron-foods.jpg\" alt=\"A man offers cheese to the photographer\" width=\"250\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/\u201cJ\u201d-at-Blue-Apron-foods.jpg 250w, https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/\u201cJ\u201d-at-Blue-Apron-foods-197x300.jpg 197w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1806\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;J&#8221; at Blue Apron Foods<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Like a Dean &amp; DeLuca without the attitude or the tourists, this Park Slope shop has a top-notch selection of goods\u2014from Stumptown coffee to Jacques Torres chocolates, and everything in between. The best part, however, is the friendly, knowledgeable staff.

So when you ask the difference between the \u201cfranks\u201d and \u201cwieners\u201d in the charcuterie case, expect a detailed explanation; when you mull undecidedly around the cheese case, an intuitive monger will most likely start handing you tastes without even asking.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Blue Apron Foods<\/strong> 814 Union Street (between 7th &amp; 8th Avenues) Park Slope, NY 718.230.3180<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Brooklyn Larder<\/h3>\n<p>Sergio Hernandez is the man at this shiny, modern shop, a refuge from the chaos of Flatbush Avenue. He opened the place with Andrew Feinberg and Francine Stephens of Franny\u2019s cafe, itself a destination since the day the duo fired up its brick oven in 2004. The Larder is stocked with a full array of takeaway food and gourmet goods, but cheese is Hernandez\u2019s passion, as evidenced by the temperature- and humidity-controlled cheese room he helped design\u2014a rarity in space- starved New York City. Ask about a cheese and be ready for a story, for Hernandez has visited nearly every cheesemaker whose product he stocks\u2014and he\u2019s schooled his staff about them, too.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/bklynlarder.com\/\">Brooklyn Larder<\/a><\/strong> 228 Flatbush Avenue (between Bergen Street and 6th Avenue) Prospect Heights, NY 718.783.1250<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>D.

The main attraction, however, may be the 24-month-old Parmigiano-Reggiano chisled from giant wheels for $11 a pound. Or perhaps the tangy Pecorino Romano for $9, the caciocavallo, the meltingly sweet Gorgonzola Dolce, or the Calabrian burrata.
