Don't laugh :-) Are there any restaurants in/near the Valley that have gouda on the menu? THANKS! Mon Apr 23 21:19:21 -0700 2007 11626 running pig 1 2508987 Gouda on the menu or gouda in food?

If it's a slow time of day, you can ask for knew suggestions if you are in an adventurous mood..just say "i usually like this type of cheese, could you recommmend something similar but a little more exciting..." if you do that, you never know what new cheeses you may falll in love with...Happy Cheese Hunting.

They also have a gouda from Holland that is aged 5 years that is one of our favorite cheeses! Ask to try it, you will love it! http://artisancheesegallery.com/index.htm Tue Apr 24 09:20:36 -0700 2007 2509794 14124 CarlieInLA
