Hi everybody,
I recently moved to South Florida (Boynton Beach area) from NYC and am missing some things I grew accustomed to over the years in NYC. One of the numerous food items I miss is decent feta cheese. There is an _extremely_ limited variety available at the supermarkets (Publix, Winn-Dixie) - all I saw was some crumbled feta at Publix, and the bottled feta-in-oil. I am looking for those slabs you could buy at greek shops in Astoria (and also recently pretty much everywhere in Manhattan) that I love. I actually prefer the "bulgarian" variety, but I'll take any variety I can find. So. Are there any greek shops in SoFla? I wouldn't mind driving upwards of 50-60 miles once a week to get my feta ![]() While at it I might as well ask away. I'm also looking for packaged hummus. I can only find Athenos (horrible - very dry) and Tribe of Two Sheiks (okay). But only in 8 oz. size. There was another widely-avail brand at every NYC supermarket, who's name escapes me. And both it and tribe were avail in 16 oz. sizes. Also, hook me up with any good ethnic (as in Eastern European & Middle Eastern) stores anywhere in the general area of South Florida. I miss Jewish pastrami, Mamoun's falafels, Bereket's kebabs ![]() P.S. Tomorrow I am going back to NYC one last time to get the last of my stuff. I'll probably put on a few pounds as I'll probably spoil myself with food.. 10 falafels @ Mamoun's seem perfectly plausible at this point in time :-D ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! >100,000 Newsgroups ---= 19 East/West-Coast Specialized Servers - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |
