06.17.19
Cheese enthusiasts can look forward to SideDoor’s bi-annual Ultimate Cheese & Charcuterie Backyard Party returning on Wednesday, July 17 from 5:30-8:30 p.m. Set in Five Crowns and SideDoor’s picturesque outdoor patio and garden, the ultimate celebration of fromage is the culmination of SideDoor’s popular monthly Cheese Takeovers and highlights all creameries featured in the series.
The final Cheese Takeover in the series takes place on Wednesday, June 19 starting at 4:30 p.m. and will present a curated portfolio of artisanal New England cheeses. For that evening only, featured cheeses will find their way into select SideDoor menu items. SideDoor’s own certified cheesemonger, Tracy Nelsen, will be present at the Cheese Takeover and the Cheese Party to educate guests on the various cheeses showcased. A 5-piece cheese board is $28.
New this year, SideDoor will be collaborating with The Bruery for the Ultimate Cheese & Charcuterie Backyard Party. Specializing in barrel aged and experimental ales, the boutique, Orange County based craft brewery will have a representative on hand to offer guests the perfect beer pairings to complement their favorite cheeses.
