Sometimes change is good. When Leonard’s 2001 Cheese Shop in Russian Hill was sold in June 2005 to new owner (and former Whole Foods exec) Ray Bair, he revamped it as Cheese Plus. Bair offers nearly 350 cheeses, including hard-to-find “affineur” fromage, such as the Abbaye de Cîteaux made by Burgundian monks, and Wisconsin Pleasant Ridge Reserve, a farmstead Gruyère-style wedge.
