Stinky Bklyn has a very friendly atmosphere, stocking a variety of charcuterie, oils, sauces, and chocolates, as well as cheese. The staff seemed knowledgeable, eager to help and the quirky take on ratings, with each cheese given a "nose" factor to gauge its stinkiness, was entertaining.

I've been to Saxelby's quite a few times and never felt pressured to buy (though I love the shop and always do). As I think I stated in a later review, when I did visit, I found Fromaggio Kitchen to be a perfect compliment to Saxelby's. I'm not sure what you mean by "contrived looks".... the cheesemonger on Dec 28, 2006

I have to agree with Gemma. I'm sickened by the contrived looks that these cheese places have. I like Formaggio's so much better than Saxelby because there is a better selection and you feel less pushed to buy. Lewis on Nov 6, 2006
