I enjoy everything there is about The Cheese Shop & Fat Canary. Same location just side-by-side. This is a family business that is run to perfection. I am also a former employee of the The Cheese Shop. Upon my hire, I signed a legally binding form that I would never disclose the recipe ingredients. It is also out of respect that I never will. Definately one of the historic area attractions, located on Duke Of Gloucester St. in Merchants Square. The patio seating is the best view in Williamsburg. You can sit there all day if you choose. My girls and my mother try different cheeses with different wines, and the sandwiches, of course. My personal fave roast beef and swiss on wheat. For all you northerners, it is the only place south of the Mason Dixon that you can get, crusty on the outside soft on the inside, bread. Fall is coming, the leaves are changing.

My go-to is the proscuitto and provolone (with house dressing of course). Sometimes when I go back down to visit friends I buy a big container and bring it back home. I'm definitely going to try this tonight! RobinSue- next time might I suggest you try Paul's Deli or the Green Leafe? They have a reputation around town for better food and a less sketchy atmosphere. However I don't know if they grill their blts :) I went to William and Mary and every student there loves the Cheese Shop! My go-to is the proscuitto and provolone (with house dressing of course).

She is 27 now and still goes to the Cheese shop and purchases it. IT IS GOOD. I hope this is as well, I will be trying it soon. I grow a lot of fresh herbs and I love putting fresh basil or oregano on my sandwiches. Plus I make my own crusty breads. I am really excited about making your sauce.

The recipe for house dressing calls for one part "house base" and nine parts mayo. As far as what's in the house base, only owners know, and make it themselves. Mustard seeds, some stuff that would be in steak sauce, and a bunch of other random spices I used to work at the cheese shop.

I have never had the real thing before but to the mixture I added the juice of half of a lemon, a pinch of sugar and a few shakes of some garlic powder. I could just keep eating the stuff. Thank you- this is a delicious idea for sandwiches. I made it today.
