Road Trip to the Yucatan - Queso de cabra

On Day 3 in the Yucatan, I rented a car to visit the countryside.  One of my favourite unexpected finds was queso de cabra.  A delicious and fun experience!

While on a small road in the countryside, I spotted a sign at a house that said "Quese y leche de cabra".  Goat cheese and milk. Whoah!  Stop!  Back up!  Let's go!

When we parked the car, a man came out.  Invited us into the house.  Brought us fresh goat cheese to taste - plain and mixed with chipotle pepper.  Yum!  We bought some.  Then expressed concern about keeping it cold.  Tadah!  The man "just happened to have" a perfect sized styrofoam cooler he could spare for 50 pesos - about $3 Canadian.  The cheese in itself was great.

But it was the atmosphere and what came next made the whole thing fun!  We were in their house. Mom was at the kitchen sink washing dishes.  Grandma was at the table just watching, existing.  The two boys, about 10 and 12 years old had a million questions. Where are you from?  Did you fly to get here?  Were you scared?  Have you been to Paris?!  Then, we visited the goats.  And got to pick up the new borns.  One day old!  Amazing!
