Cheese Plates Ride a Conveyor Belt Through Midtown

Pick and Cheese turns a cheese course into a moving tasting room. Plates of local cheeses and accompaniments circle the counter under clear covers, so you can choose at your own pace. Staff can point you toward wine pairings, including the popular number five. The setup borrows the rhythm of a revolving sushi bar, while the counter keeps the meal social and easy to shape.\n\nThe play here is in the pacing. Start with one plate, watch the next options arrive, and build a mix that suits the table. Wine recommendations from the staff can steer the pairing when choices start to stack up. It works for a quick Midtown stop or a longer catch up around the loop. The format keeps conversation moving while the food does some of the decision making.\n\nAt Shaver Hall on 424 5th Ave, the revolving format gives a small group room to compare bites without committing to one fixed order. Bring a friend who likes to sample, then let the belt decide what lands next, especially when the popular number five pairing catches your eye.
