I had the Kobe bavette at Club Chasse et Pêche on the weekend and I want to try and re-create it at home...(i know, good luck...haha) If anyone knows please share! Mon Nov 05 06:03:42 -0800 2007 46454 buzz_sapien 1 3096285 was it real japanese Kobe beef ? or some sort of Kobe type beef that can be found in the USA or western canada ? From another board, I found that number : Fresh Cutz (514-685-2889) ( from a couple of years back). you could order from http://www.kobeclassic.com/ Mon Nov 05 09:20:07 -0800 2007 3095575 11828 Maximilien 2 3097017 Fresh Cutz is out of business to the best of my knowledge. And what they were selling was a cross-breed of black angus & Canadian kobe. Club Chasse et Peche uses Canadian Kobe from Ontario(same stuff that's available at Le 357c private club restaurant). Mon Nov 05 12:08:45 -0800 2007 3096285 11610 BLM 1 3112219 Not on the Island but Boucherie L'entrecôte in Brossard sells products from this http://www.kobeclassic.com/ supplier , it's a Wagyu Angus hybrid I believe, call and ask what cuts they have available, not the best Wagyu you can get but not too bad either and prices for certain cuts are decent, ask if they have skirt , it makes a decent bavette substitute and wikll probably be cheaper.

I'll check this establishment out in Brossard. Sat Nov 10 00:46:46 -0800 2007 3112219 11610 BLM 2 3114576 This product is also available at Boucherie Atlantique on CDN, the last time I checked. Sun Nov 11 08:03:18 -0800 2007 3112219 11610 BLM 3 3114625 I've never seen kobe beef in Atlantique's refrigerator case nor have I inquired about it, but Nick Robinson's sad quest implied that it has to be special ordered. Based on his experience, I wouldn't chance it. http://tiedtothesteak.blogspot.com/2006/06/atlantique-kobes.html http://tiedtothesteak.blogspot.com/2006/08/steak.html Sun Nov 11 08:26:27 -0800 2007 3114576 10520 carswell 4 3114639 I have seen it at Atlantique. It not always available. I think you have to special order it, if you want to get it fresh(not frozen). For its price, it's decent, but it doesn't compare to the real Kobe beef from Japan. Sun Nov 11 08:31:45 -0800 2007 3114625 11610 BLM 1 3148769 Thanks for all the info - I guess i will have to go back to Chasse et Peche....darn....haha! I will check out the spot in brossard though. Fri Nov 23 06:07:24 -0800 2007 3095575 46454 buzz_sapien 2 3149446 I should mention that I too saw Kobe Classic beef in Brossard last year (although I don't remember where -- probably the same shop that Cricklewood mentions) and it was selling for about 1/5th the price of the same stuff at Atlantique. I blogged about it at the time: http://www.blork.org/blorkblog/2006/10/27/kobe-beef-anyone/ Fri Nov 23 11:54:30 -0800 2007 3148769 16415 blork 1 3149739 CCP and 357c are from Snake rivier farms not ontario Fri Nov 23 14:28:04 -0800 2007 3095575 137920 cookatlarge 2 3150164 So it's Australian Wagyu beef? Fri Nov 23 18:33:03 -0800 2007 3149739 11610 BLM 3 3150630 no it's Idaho, excelent product, the onglet is more tender than a AAA angus filet Sat Nov 24 05:43:14 -0800 2007 3150164 137920 cookatlarge
