Swiss Cheese Lab Expo at Cremerie de Paris

In September 2012, the Federation of Swiss Cheese Producers organized an exposition at the Cremerie de Paris, a historic former cheese shop at the Paris Les Halles that has become an international expo center.[5] The exposition was accompanied by various events like cheese cooking lessons from the French chef Jean Charles Karmann. Many press articles[6][7] and the Guide Michelin[8] followed the event.
