Thanks ratgirlagogo! I wouldn't dream you'd suggest not to go to Bangkok Center it's amazing!

Ah Kathryn good to know!

I don't think I will be cheating on Bangkok Center with Kalustyan's anytime soon.

Thanks for the info ratgirlagogo! I have heard great things about Kalyustan too!

Thank you Kathryn, SGordan, and Jungman!

Kathryn you were right, Bangkok Center Grocery was an amazing one stop shop with very sweet staff that made sure I got the right fish sauce etc.

And it turned out deliciously!

In fact, I followed Bangkok Center Grocery's recipe http://www.bangkokcentergrocery.com/i...

Hi All,

Where can I buy green curry paste & keffir lime leaves in Manhattan?

Thanks!

Also, is fish sauce easy to find?

Definitely second Awash!

Thanks all for your help! Really appreciate. The crown pince ones ended up being delicious in this dish :)

I think they were yucky and subpar because i got food poisoning from them. They tasted fine at the time. So my yuck association is more due to the illness that followed.

True I may not like anchovies, I know I like boquerones because I had them in Spain but they are in vinegar so a bit different.

It's a risk I am willing to take nonetheless.

Just got a little glass jar of crown prince ones from whole foods packed in oil so we will see.

Thank you, but don't you have to debone them? Yuck :)

Thanks I really love Despana beyond words but will likely end up at Whole Foods which is much closer to me.

Thank you!!

I probably should have clarified I live down the street from a Whole Foods so will probably end up going there.

Have either of you (kathryn or JungMann) gotten good ones there?

Thank you! Are there any brands that they sell which you like specifically?

Hi All,

I am making Mark Bittman's pasta with anchovies & arugula tonight. Recipe here: dinersjournal.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/07/29/the-minimalist-pasta-with-anchovies-and-arugula/

Now the only anchovies I have had experience with are the yucky sub par ones they put in greek salad, so I was wondering if anyone had any advice on which to buy for this recipe.

Thanks!
