Who knew you could find a stellar collection of cheeses from all over the world in Studio City? It may be easy to miss off the main drag of Ventura Blvd., however, once you experience the Artisan Cheese Gallery, you will never forget it.

Home to over 300 cheeses and a multitude of gourmet products ranging from olive oil to truffles to raspberry white chocolate peanut butter (yum). A nice selection of wines can also be found on their well thought out shelves. This charming spot is the perfect place to relax, eat, drink and take in your Sunday afternoon.

Your experience here wouldn't be complete without a sample from the cheese bar. If the thought of Camembert and Epoisse makes you week at the knees, be sure and give them a ballpark of what you like to spend before you order, as your cheese addiction can add up fast. We loved that the freshly cut cheese was wrapped in paper to preserve its flavor. Make room for the generously sized award winning paninis which are accompanied with Breadbar bread and sweet pickles --they are a must.

Tip: The Artisan Cheese Gallery also hosts cheese tasting events which sometime involve wine and/or chocolate. Be sure to check out their website and order tickets in advance.
