I've seen it at Ottomanelli's and Citarella, but it is incredibly expensive at both places. Any suggestions? Mon Feb 28 15:36:54 -0800 2000 0 Liza 1 1415917 I've bought both steaks and chopped meat (ostrich) at BJ's warehouse in Whitestone, but it was at least 3-6 monthes ago. You need to be a member or go with a member, but the price was reasonable for the item. If that's all you want there, don't bother. Also must drive there, it's off the Van Wyck just after the NY Times plant (21st Ave/St???) Wed Mar 01 12:12:07 -0800 2000 1415909 0 Lisa 1 1416003 A bit of subject maybe, but... I had emu carpaccio at Eight Mile Creek on Elizabeth Street. It was pretty incredible. If you like ostrich, you may want to try it. The place is pretty pricey, though.

You'd think a big bird would taste just like chicken, but no--it tasted just like beef! Mon Aug 21 06:15:24 -0700 2000 1416003 0 Emily Cotlier 3 1416714 Tastes like lamb to me. Very rich.
