Stinky Cheeses Moving Down Smith Street

Above: A visual aid to the impending move of Stinky Bklyn, the popular cheese shop that opened at 261 Smith Street back in 2006. If you’re a local who’s come to rely on Stinky for your cheese fix, fear not: The shop isn’t going very far. It’s moving all of two blocks to the former Big Apple Smith grocery space at 215 Smith Street, between Butler and Baltic. Here’s what the tipster who sent these photos in had to say: “The new location looks much larger. I saw workmen in there today carrying in sheets of plywood but it appears that they have just finished gutting the old market and have barely started the renovation. The back area of this store has a big skylight in it. It could be a very nice set-up for Stinky.”
Ice cream can be ‘faked’ by using other additives to improve mouth-feel, and give it the creamy richness w/o actually using full dairy. Flavorants can also be used in place of actual fruits/etc, or at least as a supplement
Coffee, not as much.
So Rob is 50% right….which is still shocking.
You know, the whole broken clock thing.
I think the convention is only “up” when the numbers are increasing.
aren’t they moving “up” Smith street, not “down” it?
Yes, I too would like to know that if good cheese cannot be faked, what are the precise methods used to fake good ice cream and coffee?
Please cite sources. Also please note that your organic free-range a$$ does not count as a source.
He’s right. Good coffee can actually be $1.00 a cut and doesn’t have to be $4.00. The more flavor and other shit you add to coffee the more it’s ruined.
As for ice cream, a pint of Hagen Dazs is universally $5.00.
Good cheeses are completely different. The best ones are from italy and france of course with ireland and the rest of Britain as runners up.
There may be good goat cheeses coming out of the US but the really great tasting cheeses, the stinky ones, all come from Europe. And they are all $18-30 a pound
rob’s right on this one, randi.
i want to know too!

I like that diagram map they’ve made. I wish I enjoyed cheeses more but the bland ones are about all I can stand.
