cheese counter

Where Brie lives

A cheese counter is the section of a grocery store or specialty food shop where cheeses are displayed and sold, typically staffed by someone who can cut portions to order and offer recommendations.

The term also applies to the display case itself: She asked at the cheese counter for something similar to gruyère.
