burrata at costco!
Burrata at Foster City for 6.99 for 16 oz (4 small balls). It is good! I was suspicious as it has a sell by date until 1/10 and my experience is it usually last 2 or 3 days- maybe they just got it in and I was lucky. I've never seen it here before-FC does tend to have a good cheese selection. Not as good as what I got in Rome - but then again nothing I've had in the US has been equal.

My husband and I have recently been addicted to the Gioia burrata, which is $15 per tub at Cowgirl (but the tub is packed full of cheese; it doesn't come in balls). Definitely pricier than Costco, but if you're looking for something ultra-fresh and very tasty, I think well worth the splurge. Zuni serves this burrata, fwiw.

A16 serves Gioia's as well. They have it flown in daily so it's always as fresh as possible.

Yes, it is surprisingly good. I had dinner at my father's house last week and he had purchased some at the Richmond Costco. I was a little skeptical when he told me the price and the source, especially as he is a notorious cheapskate (as am I) who more than once has purchased meat and cheese of seriously questionable character because he got a "deal". Very fresh and yummy.
