Tip #1: Be interesting. Mix milks, flavors, textures & colors. Pick cheeses that will be memorable or have a broad appeal. Ask your cheesemonger for her picks.

Tip #2: Give us some space. Make sure to have a platter or board large enough to hold the cheeses. Or do butcher paper. Or do multiple plates. Do not overcrowd the cheese plate or overwhelm your guests. Have separate knives.
