Fri Aug 26 17:01:27 -0700 2005 0 halo 1 1201369 I've seen all three at the Whole Foods in the Time Warner Center. That said, they were all much more expensive than they should have been. Check out the Union Square location first, though. Hope this helps, Nosher Link: http://nycnosh.com Fri Aug 26 17:30:58 -0700 2005 1201366 0 Nosher 1 1201372 I'm pretty sure I've seen a mushroom stand at union square greenmarket. I'm not sure if the stand is there on Saturday (maybe other hounds can help) but if you are in the neighborhood you might want to stop by.

Their shitake and oyster mushrooms are fantastic as are their buttons.Looking forward to getting some tomorrow. Fri Aug 26 21:30:50 -0700 2005 1201372 0 andrea 3 1201399 There are two suppliers at the Union Square Market and one of them is there at least one other day besides Saturday. You can ask at the market manager's table.

Fri Aug 26 19:58:48 -0700 2005 1201366 0 Caitlin McGrath 1 1201391 You should definately go to SOS Foods on Avenue B and 6/7 Street. They always have the biggest selection in town, and do a big business with chefs. Be wary of the packaged goods in the store, have had much less success with them. Fri Aug 26 21:31:59 -0700 2005 1201366 0 EV Andrew 1 1201402 Are Garden of Edens still around? If so, they have been carrying the largest selection of mushrooms when no one else in town was offering even half of what they offer. Fri Aug 26 23:32:08 -0700 2005 1201366 0 HLing 2 1201509 Absolutely! The Garden of Eden on 14th has a much better selection than the WholeFoods and is generally cheaper and fresher. Mon Aug 29 09:04:39 -0700 2005 1201402 0 TSR 3 1201584 Manhattan Fruit Exchange in the Chelsea Market always has a great variety of mushrooms and their prices are reasonable. Mon Aug 29 13:20:42 -0700 2005 1201509 0 efdee 1 1201403 thank you everyone!!! i will hit the following places in order to pick up all the mushrooms i need... 1. Union Square - Farmer's Market, Whole Foods, and Garden of Eden. 2. Chelsea Market 3. SOS Foods and if anyone has good herb-mushroom pairings i'd be interested to hear and experiment. my favorite is hen-of-the-woods and thyme... Fri Aug 26 23:38:48 -0700 2005 1201366 0 halo
