#sxswfromage Make It Magnifique-cheeses of Europe Party 2014
This was a big surprise!
There are sorts of products and brands at SXSW begging for your attention with free stuff everywhere. But I don't really want free doritos, monster drink (Ok I did drink one when I needed to keep going) and I don't care for Dorito's or Lady Gaga. BUT! We do like a good sinky cheese!
They offered free wine (1 oz pour) and free buffet featuring cheeses from Europe. They even had cute french girls there to help us navigate the stinky gooey goodness spread before us like a beautiful banquet. Kat was so happy!
We sampled them all! some more than once. Roquefort on toast with honey drizzled over? sure! again? ok!
They served us melted Camambert in cups with fresh veggies for dipping, or you can just DRINK the melted Camembert. SXSW certainly can be about over indulgence! We drank Camembert cheese from Normandy France!
They even had KRAI (the worlds only cheese sculptor) do a live cheese sculpting performance...
Kat noticed insulated canvas travel bags lined up on the wall. One of the servers gave her one and offered to let her buy cheese, at a discount. Of course she did!
They were so happy to serve us, they even filmed kat making her fromage purchase from Affinage
I think this was Kat's favorite SXSW party.
