I used to eat it at the Corner Bakery as a side salad, but they don't offer it anymore. Where can I get good fresh buffalo mozarella in OC, preferably the small round ball type? I live in Fountain Valley. Sun Apr 18 16:20:50 -0700 2004 0 Javier 1 315145 Cortina's in Anaheim, on Orange just east of Brookhurst, is the place to go. Not sure if their deli is open on Sundays, so you might let your fingers do the walking first. Cortina Italian Mkt.

It is kept in the water and "fresh style" like they originally made it in Italy, but it is not made from buffalo milk, just cow's milk. It's good, though.

I assume there's a costco in orange county. Mon Apr 19 16:31:46 -0700 2004 315135 0 Jerome 1 318439 I have actually found real Mozzarella di Bufala at Ralphs Market on Irvine Ave. in Newport Beach. I have gone to several stores in search of this. I found out that Mozzarella di Bufala is from whole Buffalo's milk. There is something called 'fresh mozzarella' from cow's milk, but don't mistake it for Buffalo Mozzarella. I actually recently found a web site that makes Mozzarella di Bufala fresh daily and it looks like you can order it from their web site at: http://www.mozzarelladibufala.net/ This is the same brand I have purchased from Ralphs Market on Irvine Ave. in Newport Beach.
