Thomas Laval crossed the Seine. Already established for ten years on rue du Commerce, one of the liveliest and most pleasant streets on the left bank (in the 15th arrondissement), this cheesemonger has just opened a new address at 13, rue Rambuteau (4th), very close of Beaubourg. “I always loved this neighborhood where I worked when I was a student and I dreamed of coming back one day. »

Thomas Fromager therefore replaces Les fromages de Raphaëlle, an excellent professional much appreciated by her customers, who has set off on new adventures.

The task was therefore not easy. With his young family team, the newcomer took on the challenge with flying colors, to the great relief of the neighborhood's residents.

The welcome is warm and the quality products come directly from the producers via Franck Gratiot, a famous agent at the Rungis market whose reputation is firmly established.

A fine gourmet, the new cheesemaker on Rue Rambuteau, aged 37, has his own preferences: 24-month Comté, Reblochon, Gabarre (a raw milk goat's cheese), “three refined products”.

But in this country with 258 varieties of cheese - France - its selection is obviously wider: truffled brie, briquette, fresh goat's cheese, coulommiers, Perche clover, sheep's tomme, etc. Also on the menu: the famous Bordier butter from Saint-Malo and a little cold meats, “to help out”. “And soon, we will launch snacking, with a menu renewed every day which will include croque-monsieur,” specifies the thirty-year-old cheesemaker.

Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
