I tend to buy a few packets now and then, then find them years later hidden at the back of the pantry, unused......am trying to get my toddlers onto Tuna - hence why I picked this one up...will make a point of trying this week !

Whereabouts in Bradford you from? Spent 3 years there at the University...loved it. Lived out Emm Lane way - but spent a lot of time in the Shearbridge, Pickwicks, the Kismet....ahh, can almost smell it now!![/QUOTE]
Bloody hell, I've always been too old to go to Pickwicks although I did a few times, have lived all over can't say too much (theres a racist nutter about who thinks everyone from Bradford supports BNP) could kill for a decent curry. Apparently all the town Centre is being pulled down, my brother was showing me the local paper on Skype thought it was Iraq I was looking at.

Have you looked in different grocery stores? I can find white cabbage in all my local grocery stores.

ha - we got Life Memebership for 30p back in the early 80's. Was last there about 4 or 5 years ago on a mates stag night, and they went through the old files and came up with our details and let us have new cards !!!! Felt extremely old, although was reassuring to see that very little had actually changed ... a few of the curry houses had changed names, but most of the old favourites were still there. Sad to see that the Italia had closed down....

Jaxbar

I really have maybe they feed it to the sharks or the pelicans or the alligators, I even asked and was given a blank stare but that was after I was asked if I was off the Geiko advert? no really

Jaxbar

My friend lived on the same street as the Italia and ate there every single day - never cooked.

I'm guessing s/he wasn't too skinny...

Is there a farmer's market in your town/area? Maybe you'll find white cabbage there? Have you thought about contacting your State Department of Agriculture (or looking at their website)?

I am spoilt, i live in Wylie and shop a lot in Plano, the world market there does have a load of cadburys choc bars and plenty of other goodness. Also, central market does a load of good beers and there is a beer store called Plano beverage that stocks an impressive amount of British beers including some wychwood brewery beers that i love. Also Dallas has a British shop that sells goods and my local supermarket seels british stuff. I didnt even have a chance to miss a lot of it.

Bradford: been there many a time to see bands play at the 1-in-12 club hidden down a side alley. Has some great curry houses up there.

Jaxbar

Hello and welcome, I went there a few times the only anarchist club still going I guess! some very 'interesting' bands on and cheap beer as I recall.

Sarah

Yeah it sucks - But we do have Wegmans which is my fave place to shop I'll miss it when I leave PA in a few years.

Thackattack

Blimey, i didnt expect anyone on here to know of the 1-in-12 club! Its a cool venue, has a little library too which i heard has now been turned into more like a gym! The beer there is cheap and very strong!

Just saw a thing about a decent curry house in NY, Brick Lane Curry House

Was on one of those food channel shows about hot food...looked pretty good too...shame it's a fair drive away...so anyone else tried it by any chance?

Thackattack

is it called Brick lane curry house because of Brick lane in WHitechapel, London?

Big D

Doesnt anyone else find World Market ridiculously expensive and most of the Brit stuff can be had in Kroger for half the price?

Bob

wouldn't have a clue...
