In partnership with Canadian chef Laurent Dagenais, Boursin is bringing La Petite Fenêtre Boursin to Toronto and Montreal to encourage people to celebrate everyday moments and host friends and loved ones year-round, not only during the holidays.
The joyful limited-time experience takes cues from European wine windows and will offer complimentary, chef-designed cheese boards in neighborhood hotspots. Each curated board tells a different story through flavor by centering on a different Boursin variety: Fig & Balsamic, Garlic & Fine Herbs, Shallot & Chive or Basil & Chive.
This surprise La Petite Fenêtre Boursin pop-up can only be experienced in Montreal for a few hours on August 2nd and in Toronto a few days later on August 8th, underscoring that "some of the best gatherings are the ones you didn't plan for."
