Fromagerie Quatrehomme

St-Germain & Les Invalides


Buy the best of French cheeses, many with an original take (eg Epoisses boxed in chestnut leaves, Mont d’Or flavoured with black truffles, spiced honey and Roquefort bread), at this king of fromageries (cheese shops), at home in the 'hood since 1953.

There's a local branch near Butte aux Cailles.
