Best cheese to buy in Southern california

[Ryderman]

Can anyone help with the best cheese I can get in Southern California. Please don't say Kirkland. Can I get Grande out here? Thanks for any help

Hey Ryderman,

what part of So Cal are you in?  Grande is available but only in food distributors...  I may be able to direct you to a restaurant that is using it... and you could talk to them about buying some from them???

Whole Foods carries Grande mozzarella and provolone in my area (San Jose/Silicon Valley)...

I don't know how close you are to the San Fernando Valley but there's an awesome little Italian grocer/deli called Cavaretta's that has a great selection of tomatoes, cheeses, and pastas.  They definitely carry the fresh Grande. 

Best of luck!

If you live in the South Bay...Vinny's Pizza uses Grande cheese...perhaps they would sell you some.  They are located in El Segundo and Westchester (on Lincoln).  If I get to Whole Foods this week...I will check there also.
