DeLaurenti\'s Seattle Cheese Festival
A Spring Combo Festival In Seattle, WA
DeLaurenti’s Seattle Cheese Festival presents more than 100 artisanal cheeses from local and international producers and more than 250 cheeses total along the cobblestone street of Pike Place Market. The festival is the first of its kind on the West Coast with artisanal cheese at center stage. The two-day event offers the general public and the restaurant trade the opportunity to taste, celebrate and learn more about artisanal cheese through the Cheese Concourse, the Artisanal Alley, informative seminars and panels, DeLaurenti’s Wine Garden and a children’s “cheese maze” scavenger hunt. Local restaurants and chefs bring the Seattle Cheese Festival to the table for their customers by providing “Cheese Fest Best” cheese dishes during the month of the festival at top restaurants throughout the Seattle area.
The Seattle Cheese Festival is a nonprofit organization founded by DeLaurenti Specialty Food & Wine. DeLaurenti Specialty Food & Wine has served Seattle residents and visitors for close to 60 years from its outpost on First and Pike in Pike’s Place Market. DeLaurenti owner Pat McCarthy wanted to create a way to give exposure to artisanal cheese – the centerpiece of the store as well as recognition to artisanal producers.
