443179 Thu Sep 20 11:52:24 -0700 2007 12 18 Manhattan 0 2960030 My boyfriend fell in love with this stuff at a restaurant in the West Village several months back. We've been searching for it in grocery stores and specialty shops around town ever since--with no luck. It comes in small bottles, is red in color and, like it's name suggests, really bitter. So, any ideas on where we can find San Pellegrino's Sanbitter in Manhattan? Any leads would be appreciated... Thu Sep 20 11:52:24 -0700 2007 128820 jlge 1 2960058 Have you tried Murray's - don't know for sure that they have it, but do remember seeing a small variety of small Pelligrino bottles there.

Boy - sanbitter - certainly an acquired taste, much like their Chinotto. Fri Sep 21 17:08:58 -0700 2007 2960058 20871 captkenjeroo 1 2960353 Call Buon Italia in the Chelsea Market. They have a number of Italian sodas (not sure if they carry that one but they have a number of them). Thu Sep 20 13:07:53 -0700 2007 2960030 15942 BillyBob 2 2988240 saw it there a few days ago. Sat Sep 29 08:43:59 -0700 2007 2960353 107418 steeltowngrl 1 2961874 I have seen them at Zaytuna on Battery Place. They carry the big bottles, but I will suggest that you call first to confirm. I think I did see them at Murray's on Bleecker before (as MMRuth mentioned). But I am not sure if they always have them.

Fri Sep 21 11:07:45 -0700 2007 2961874 128820 jlge 1 2964170 not sure if any of these places carry it - probably should call first, but thought i'd throw them out there....you might try Citarella - there is one on the UWS; Dean & Deluca (market) on prince street; maybe even Gourmet Garage - i think there are two locations -one is on the UWS. what about Whole Foods? Fri Sep 21 13:48:17 -0700 2007 2960030 115955 paisley 1 2964538 I'm almost certain Raffetto's on Houston has them. Fri Sep 21 15:42:58 -0700 2007 2960030 15695 rose water 1 2966915 Fresh Direct has it. Sat Sep 22 18:53:59 -0700 2007 2960030 107418 steeltowngrl 1 2988209 A sighting - Ideal Cheese - 1st Ave. and 52nd Street. Had to buy one - just tried it - reminds me of campari without the alcohol. Worth the trip there for the cheeses as well. Sat Sep 29 08:24:16 -0700 2007 2960030 10985 MMRuth 2 2989096 Thanks for thinking of us! We actually found Sanbitter today at Raffetto's on Houston--boyfriend is so happy! It's good to know that this stuff IS out there--and there are at least a couple of places to find it. Thanks to everyone for all the help! Sat Sep 29 16:43:49 -0700 2007 2988209 128820 jlge 1 2989219 I think Dean and Deluca carries it Sat Sep 29 17:51:37 -0700 2007 2960030 47912 foodie229
