Savour Stratford presents Stratford Says “CheeseWeek” to welcome the Canadian Dairy XPO with delicious cheese features at eleven participating Stratford and area restaurants April 1 through 9 plus a special cheese pairing event, April 8.

Bard's Steakhouse

If you like cheese, then you’ll love our chefs’ unique variations on favourite comfort foods, from appetizers to dessert. It wouldn’t be CheeseWeek without a classic mac ‘n cheese.  Enjoy cheese in quiche, cheesy pizza, and lasagna. Explore a variety of local cheeses on selected cheese trays accented with local honey, mustards and combined with cured meats. 

Mac and Cheese at Boar's Head

Canadian favourites such as bacon jam poutine and cheesy fries will tempt you further. 

Downie Street Poutine

The Parlour Cheesy Fries

Or, savour every morsel of hand-stretched Italian Burrata. Cheese for dessert? Of course, order cheesecake, goat’s cheese truffles, and cheddar bacon butter tarts, a meal in themselves! Fresh baked cheese buns and scones can be purchased by the dozen to enjoy later.  

Kitchen Smidgen Truffles

Kitchen Smidgen Goatcheese Cheesecake

New this year is a unique Cheese and Cocktail tasting and pairing event at The Mill Stone Restaurant on Saturday, April 8. You’ll be introduced to a new world of possibilities with five distinct pairings, some in a more traditional ways and others combining these two elements in unexpected ways. Cheese and Cocktails begins at 6:00 pm and reservations must be made in advance by email inquiries[at]themillstone.ca or by calling 519-273-5886. The cost is $45 per person.
