www.balik.com is the manufacturer. You can order direct from them (I think),
not sure if they ship to the US, their site is flash-heavy so I didn't follow
the ordering process to the penultimate step.

Or you can call the restaurant where you ate the dish and ask who their
supplier is.

Best of luck,
