When it comes to the Milan family, we’re interested in… les Sœurs! Sisters Hélène and Lara are all smiles at this creamery with award-winning design by Studio Rike, where you’ll see farm-fresh cheddar cozying up next to saffron-infused pecorino on the wooden shelves. Want more? There are aged gems from the talented Vincent Verleyen (named Belgium’s Best Cheesemaker in 2014), like the explosively flavorful Trou Perdu washed in beer, or the aromatic Samson aux fleurs, an organic, raw-milk soft cheese that’s won several awards. In addition to the sacrosanct duo of wine and charcuterie, you’ll also find some lovely épicerie products, and best of all, a surprising selection of fondue-appropriate teas. A true family heirloom of a spot. // Monica Noli
The hidden gem: Estaing, a sheep’s milk tomme cheese that’ll drive you loony (€39.50/kg).
