Cheese Platter with Fresh Grapes

A spread of different cheeses is an easy way to add sophistication and flair to a sit-down dinner. Offer several kinds of cheese—those with different textures (soft, hard, semi-hard), or those that are made from different kinds of milk. Cheeses are also better enjoyed with some fruit or bread on the side. Here, we served the cheeses with grapes.
