Anybody have a local, quality source? I'd rather avoid supporting Bezo's next purchase. Tried two butchers (east side) and a few markets with no luck.

for the unfamiliar:

Schmaltz is rendered chicken or goose fat, commonly used in traditional Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine as a cooking fat, spread, or ...

Sweet. Thanks for that review. I'd been to Thailly's for some of their food before and was always pleased.

Ouch!

That was fast

Just hit Gerardo’s Pizzaria last night. Very nice. Everything homemade. Quite the find up there amongst the red rocks.

I have a friend coming to town from the East coast and he’d love some tripas which he doesn’t get where he lives.

Just went down the Wagyu YouTube hole and now I’d like to buy a one pound piece (to cook myself). Where’s the best local source?

It’s not the same as found in most Asian markets. It’s made differently and made in the USA.

Oh well, gonna have to try those recommended when I’m not with a group. I mentioned a bunch of them but NakedQ was the vote. And it was just okay for me. With all the great bbq joints we have, this wouldn’t make the grade.

Since I’m an hour away, I don’t head this far west for food. I’m going to see Rolling Stones on Tuesday and am wondering if there’s anything decent at westgate so if I go early to beat crowds there’d be a decent supper place.

I’ve been to a few but they’ve all been just okay. Any next step stops on the east side of town?
