Formaggio Kitchen

About

Formaggio Kitchen is a specialty food shop in Cambridge best known for its cheese. Its buyers travel through the United States and Europe to visit dairies, cheesemakers and cheese agers, bringing their artisan products back to the stores. Beyond cheese, the shop sells wine, beer, charcuterie, produce, olive oil, jams, honey, coffee, tea, spices, chocolate and confections, in keeping with its founding vision of a European-style shopping experience.

The Formaggio Kitchen family of stores began in 1978. Owners Ihsan and Valerie Gurdal now run shops in Cambridge, the South End and New York, and a newer Kendall Square outpost offers coffee, sandwiches, beer, wine and catering. Customers can shop in person, order takeout, arrange catering or use curbside pickup, and the business also ships gift collections and food club subscriptions.
