My local Waitrose even carries them Brindisa always has them both at the Exmouth Market branch or in Borough Market They should not be too hard to find S Tue Jan 09 12:45:05 -0800 2007 2168602 12021 Simon Majumdar 2 2168614 Thanks Simon. I will check my local Waitrose this evening--would love to avoid the crush of the Borough market! Btw, I love your blog! I am a frequent reader!

The Exmouth market branch gets forgotten a bit, but i prefer it to BM. less of a crush Pleased you are enjoying the blog. keep reading S Tue Jan 09 15:17:24 -0800 2007 2168614 12021 Simon Majumdar 1 2172081 Check out Garcia & Sons and De La Fuente in the Spanish enclave at the Ladbroke Grove end of Portobello Road. Garcia definitely sells pimientos de padron. Worth checking out these places for all their other Spanish produce - Garcia is the better known and has an adjoining tapas bar as of a couple of years back but I always preferred the smaller, lesser known De La Fuente and regularly picked up boquerones, lomo, jamon de serrano, jamon de jabugo, chorizo picante etc from there. Very friendly mother, father, son trio running the place.

Hmmm . . . not sure if they do the padron peppers though. Good line in suckling pigs though! Wed Jan 10 21:54:31 -0800 2007 2168602 65826 Howard V
