finecognac Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Hello, I'd like first to introduce myself. I 've been lurking for awhile reading and enjoying variety of topics here. I am in Falls Church, VA. I get my meats @ wholefoods, vegs @ various korean stores, and fish @ wegmans, greatwall, grandmart. I am of Vietnam origin. I am currently in the hunt for scallops in the shells to make a dish for my wife. Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't look too fresh, but I'd guess that if you hot them on the right day you might get what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently in the hunt for scallops in the shells to make a dish for my wife. Any help is appreciated. Welcome finecognac!I saw scallops in the shell at the Great Wall Supermarket in Merryfield back in November. They did NOT look good; i.e., they seemed to be dead already. They didn't have any when I was there in February--dead or alive. However, that would be a place I would call, if I were you, and see what they can do for you. It wouldn't hurt to call the large Korean supermarkets, too. Just remember: If you don't ask, you don't get. Edited to add: Waitman, my chauffeur, beat me to the punch.

finecognac Posted March 6, 2006 Author Share Posted March 6, 2006 I am about 2 minutes from Great Wall. I don't shop there as much cause I think their vegs are not that good. They need sprinkler system for their vegs. I'll check them out again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sthitch Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 I have seen them from time to time at Black Salt market. But not very often. You might try calling them, or M. Slavin to see if you can get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPW Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Mussles. Squeeze sings about pulling mussels from a shell. I do indeed realize that, but it was close enough that word association got me going. Peanut going through a sleepless phase? No, but I can now recite the following fine works of fiction from memory - Ferdinand, The Digginest Dog, Madeleine, Where the Wild Things Are, Harry the Dirty Dog, and Are You My Mother?, among others. The result being that my brain is turning to mush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off topic, but...Late night food reading to an infant, go to Amazon.com and order: First Book of Sushi by Amy Wilson Sanger "I see take-out tekka maki, kappa maki packed to go..." (more) or her dim sum book. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
