On Apartment Therapy
$3.40. That's all I had. After reading review after review declaring how "cheap" the East Village Cheese Shop was, I decided to give it a shot. I would go in there with the change I had in my pocket and see what I could come out with.

I am sorry if I offended some people with my review. But, it is just that, a personal review. I do my best to be non-biased: I would never review Murray's cheese and do my best to, when I go into a store, compare it to the whole spectrum of shops out there, not just the one I work at. I did my best to offer a balanced view of this shop. As you'll read, half of my review goes into detail of reasons why one should go to this shop. But, It is, essentially, an editorial review and I would be lying if I said the cheese there was quality. It's cheap and it's bulk and, if that is what you are looking for, it's is an excellent place to shop. It's not what I look for when I look for cheese.
These store reviews are not part of my weekly post, they are a supplement offered as a side-effect of looking for cheese to right about. Though the cheeses there would be good for a informal party, they don't have the type of cheeses I would buy to review.
I hope everyone can calm down, know that I meant no one any harm and we can all get on with enjoying the variety of food shops the city has to offer. the cheesemonger on Aug 1, 2006
