It's the cheese

[thatguy]

The edible Monterey article touting the new cheese maker shop in Carmel village came out in June. Since we were near, we went by to check it out. They were closed. The sign on the door read:

Carmel Valley Creamery

BUSINESS HOURS
MONDAY - CLOSED
TUESDAY - CLOSED
WEDNESDAY - CLOSED
THIRSDAY - CLOSED
FRIDAY - CLOSED
SATURDAY - 7:30AM TO 2:30PM
SUNDAY - 7:30AM TO 2:30PM

COFFEE, PASTRIE & BREAD, CHEESE, AND MORE!

Nice to see the four food groups represented, but with those hours, I don't know how they will stay in business. They closed 30min before we got there. When I went up to the door to check the hours, it opened and Sophie the owner, with the cutest French accent introduced herself and said they would be open on Labor Day as well so come on back...

I remembered the post about good cheese and good milk, so I asked what dairy they use and she said it's Schoch! 

So yay, but currently, it isn't much of a cheese shop...

PS: I also saw a post that the Toasted restaurant is up for sale. They are going to stay open until it sells, but it won't be around much longer. They sold their lunch truck a few years ago and are going to move on to other things...

Sad...
