(i'm not crazy about boarshead's). i lived in DC for a while and you could get it everywhere. do you think it's just a southern thing? tanks! ;-) Mon Apr 14 10:35:25 -0700 2003 0 ali b 1 1272943 I don't have a specific place in mind, but my local Polish butcher makes very good head cheese. You might want to try some of the butcher shops in Williamsburg.

Great chicken headcheese too. Mon Apr 14 12:13:53 -0700 2003 1272940 0 Erica Marcus 2 1272962 thanks erica i would love to try it and also the chicken one. can you tell me what subway stop is near that (i don't know brooklyn that well). thanx! Mon Apr 14 14:54:22 -0700 2003 1272948 0 ali b 3 1272970 I think the closest would be Prospect Avenue on the N train. The veal roulade is also great. And the two frozen soups I've had are amazing. There's a much bigger Polish market next door, Eagle Provisions, that's worth your while as well. For a nice lunch, walk down 5th Avenue to 21th Street (I think) for Nuevos Tacos Mexicanos. Have fun. Mon Apr 14 16:17:36 -0700 2003 1272962 0 Erica Marcus 4 1273693 Erica, a friend took me to Jubilat last weekend based on your recommendation. What a wonderful place. Incredible selection of hams, some homemade, many canadian bacons, all kinds of farmers cheese, sausages and kielbasa galore. The head cheese we bought was delicious. Somehow I never noticed this place even though I live three blocks away. I wish I could recommend another nice lunch nearby, but Tacos Nuevo Mexico might be the closest.

Mon Apr 14 12:39:04 -0700 2003 1272940 0 ironchef1125 2 1272960 on the metro @ eastern market (orange and blue lines) there's a really cool farmers market. plus i saw it in most of the supermarkets there anyway and also something called 'souse' that was similar but had a much sharper vinegar tang to it. mange! Mon Apr 14 14:52:45 -0700 2003 1272953 0 ali b 1 1272978 The best headcheese I have had in years was recently served at Bohemian Hall in Queens. Apparently home made. Mon Apr 14 17:55:33 -0700 2003 1272940 0 Pat Goldberg 1 1273002 Try any Shaler & Weber or Karl Ehmer's pork store. Ehmer's is especially good. Last I knew there was still a Shaler & Weber in the Yorkville section. There are several Karl Ehmer stores out in Long Island and a few up above the city in Westchester county.
