I know it was an "east side" question, but once again the answer is Costco.
I mean, come on, if you're into fromage it's worth the migration.
The Petite Basque rounds, full wedges of Stilton, packs of slightly stinky Tallegio, chunks of Irish cheddar, gorgozolas, camemberts, various bries, double creams, triple creams, goats, sheeps....literally hundreds of square feet of cheese!
The only other place even close to being interesting is Waimea Liquors where Alvin keeps an interesting, albeit brief, selection.
In Hilo, I agree, it's KTA or Cost U Less. But spend $20 on gas and half a day and get a months supply of cheese at a FRACTION of the price at the best source for cheese, wine, and a myriad of other necessities, Costco. It's a life changer. And if they'd ever bring back the Triple cream Bourgogne a life saver....damn I miss that cheese!
