Sweet dreams are made of cheese. Pimento cheese, that is. Columbia is home to one of the oldest recipes for pimento cheese — so it’s only right to plan a trip with the Pimento Cheese Passport.

Think of the passport as your pimento cheese tour guide, leading you to all the best restaurants and bars for a cheese-filled weekend in the capital city. Bonus: Collect five stamps for a specialized mug or pint glass, 10 stamps for a t-shirt, and visit all the restaurants to score a grand prize.*
