Domestic Soft Cheese Like Brie Or Camembert ?

[medialuna989]

It´s not in city center, but Casa del Queso in Almagro has decent camembert and smoked gouda... between the Carlos Gardel and Medrano subtes, on Corrientes. I have NEVER found feta or soft goat cheese...has anyone else been successful?

For soft goat cheese (if we speak about the same thing), you have two brands at Jumbo (and likely other supermarkets): Cabana & Santa Ollala. Just look well at the label for "Cabra" (goat) since it might be a bit misleading sometimes, and you end up buying cow cheese. There's also French "President" goat cheese which is very good & expensive (same price as "Wapi" Argentinean goat cheese though.... makes you wonder how prices can be justified).

Feta is a sheep's milk cheese and there is some very good feta for sale at El horno del mediooriente @ Av. Garay & Alberti. They also have lebanese pine nuts, delicious black olives etc.
