One of the simplest, yet most impressive, appetizers is a cheese platter. But it's important to remember that it's not just a selection of the various cheeses you eat every day, but rather a beautiful arrangement of expensive cheeses with varying textures and contrasting flavors. For example, goat cheese, Brie, Roquefort, and aged Cheddar all fit perfectly here. Additional appetizers, designed to highlight or complement the flavors of the cheeses, also play an important role on a cheese platter. Dried fruit, fresh figs, grapes, and crackers, neatly arranged among the cheeses, will be the perfect flavor and aesthetic complement to your exquisite appetizer.

• 8 fig leaves
• 1-2 bunches of white grapes
