A cheese shop!
Bloody hellfire they are getting sophisticated there.
Or is it like cheese shop in the Monty Python sketch?
The last time I bought cheese in India there was a choice between
horrifyingly expensive Gouda, Kraft cheese slices and Dairylea.
My wife told me this was a very good range for India.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
