Cheese or Die
Curators of quality cheese and fine food accompaniments
Say Cheese Fromagerie has been serving Calgary and Western Canada the finest products from around the world for more than 20 years from its location at the Crossroads Market – where you’ll find us feverishly slicing cheese like nobody’s business every Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
When we’re not slinging cheese in the shop, we can be found hosting cheese events across the city and curating cheese programs for local restaurants (and international airlines).
