Events, classes & things to do...  

While Venissimo - Mission Hills is a wee bit small to host its own tasting events, we participate in dozens of happenings around San Diego County. In Del Mar, roughly once a month, join us for a casual cheese-and-accoutrement tasting in our courtyard.

Additionally, Cheese Wiz Gina teaches various classes & hosts private tasting events (such as a 3-course fondue feast for at least six guests in your home for $35 per person or an around-the-world cheese tasting for $20 per person). Send Gina an e-mail if you are interested in arranging a special event (please plan at least a month in advance)!

Here are some upcoming fun foodie events where you can enjoy Venissimo cheese & more:
