Martha Stewart just got a huge haul from a Toronto cheese shop

Martha Stewart just received a seriously impressive haul from Toronto's top cheese shop.

In the world of homemakers, hostesses and household chefs, no one looms quite as large as the one and only Matha Stewart. In the decidedly smaller, though, in my view, no less important world of Toronto cheese shops, that role is filled by Afrim Pristine of Cheese Boutique fame.

It's only fair, then, that, should multi-millionaire and mogul Stewart find herself in Toronto and in need of a fromage fix, she'd set her sights westward — to Etobicoke, to be exact — and the staggering, Stilton-scented stacks of the Boutique.

According to a May 28 Instagram post by Pristine, that's exactly what happened.

The post leads with a note, written by Pristine and addressed to Stewart, that reads, "Please enjoy the cheese. [Smiley face] I chose the absolute best for you. We, at Cheese Boutique are big fans... Have a great time in Toronto."

"I was told she likes her cheese, so I went 'All-Out' on the selection. I know she likes French cheese and I had to represent some Canadiana cheese too," Pristine goes on to write in the caption of the post.

If you want to eat like Martha Stewart yourself, Pristine even lists the exact cheeses he put in the order, whose Canadian elements include a cheddar from Cows Creamery, Gouda from Mountain Oak Cheese and Wildwood from Stonetown Cheese, among a selection of other French additions and cured meats from across Europe.

Stewart is currently in Toronto for a series of promotional appearances, including at the 20th Chai Lifeline Gala on Wednesday, May 27, so fans might still have a chance to catch her running through the Six.

Her love for Nobu is well-documented, so perhaps start there.
