Gourmet Cheese Plate, Euro Cheese Assortment


Explanation:
I think in the US "cheese plate" is a menu item in upscale restaurants. I would use the entire phrase, myself.

Don't worry about grading this, I feel like I've borrowed everyone's ideas for this one and compiled from what everyone else has already offered, so my originality here is nill.
