This isn't really a dining question, but it's food related.

On my first trip to Bonaire, I travelled through Curacao, and on my way back I bought a package of 3 small gouda cheese wheels at the airport. One of them was a goat cheese gouda. I'd like to get some more of this particular cheese, as my parents really enjoyed it. I'm not travelling through Curacao anymore, so does anyone know where I can get some of this cheese on Bonaire? Does Flamingo airport have a cheese shop, or would my best bet be to check at the Warehouse?

Yes, they sell it at the gift shop at the airport.

I have also bought goat gouda in a grocery store ... can't remember for certain which, but I think it was Warehouse. I don't see it on every trip, however.

I googled gouda goat cheese. You can actually buy it online.
I hope the link works:

One of my favorites is the "old amsterdam" cheese :-)

Well, the only reason I want to get it in Bonaire is because my parents are cat-sitting while I'm on vacation and I'm buying it for them, along with some nice wine. There's a place in BC that sells it too, if I want to buy it online. But if I buy it for them at some other place I won't have an excuse to go to Bonaire ;)

Natalie,
I bought one of the small goat cheese wheels at "Warehouse" last Tuesday.

Thanks, I'll have to check out Warehouse next time. 21 days!

The cheese I saw last week at Cultimara was not very fresh so I didn't buy any there, and I was planning to get some at Warehouse on our last day (Saturday) but forgot they close early (doh!), so I tried the airport the next morning and they had absolutely NO CHEESE! Dangit! So I guess I'll be buying some online.
