Alongside Afrim's best dishes are 20 masterpieces from the world's top chefs--everyone from Daniel Boulud, Claudio Aprile, Anthony Walsh, and Rob Gentile to Chuck Hughes, Anna and Michael Olson, Bob Blumer and more. With personal anecdotes and helpful information, creative and delicious recipes, and beautiful photography, For the Love of Cheese is sure to bring joy to your kitchen and your heart. Review Praise for Afrim Pristine and For the Love of Cheese “The world’s most accomplished young cheesemonger spills everything he knows about what’s good, where to find it and how to enjoy it once you’ve got it home. Sure, this is a cookbook about cheese, but more than that, it’s the guide to life every food lover needs.” —Chris Nuttal-Smith, food writer “Every time I go to Cheese Boutique, it feels like coming home after a long stretch in jail. With open, nonjudgmental arms, Afrim is always there for me, regardless of what kind of cheese I pick. In this amazing book, he takes his brilliance on the road to the benefit of readers everywhere. Afrim is the greatest human I know! BUY THIS BOOK!!!” —Matty Matheson, chef and host of Dead Set on Life and It’s Suppertime! “If you know Afrim, you know that he is just a big kid in a cheese-loving man’s body. This book is a perfect reflection of his fun and youthful approach to food and entertaining. He is a pillar of Toronto’s culinary scene and there isn’t a better person to learn from if you love cheese as much as he does.” —Grant van Gameren, chef/owner of Bar Isabel and Bar Raval “A must-have book for any cheese lover! This wonderful cookbook is a celebration of the Pristine family—their commitment, passion, and love for cheese is evident on every page, where cheese is the star ingredient in Afrim’s delicious recipes!” —David Rocco, chef, TV star, and creator of the Dolce Vita series “Afrim Pristine: the man who convinced me to try (and, later, love!) blue cheese.

I am thrilled that readers will get to spend time with my friend through this amazing book that celebrates all things cheese.” —Marilyn Denis, host of The Marilyn Denis Show “Afrim Pristine has a global perspective and vast knowledge about the wonderful world of cheese.
