On line supplier of fresh (not dried) curry leaves?

Thread Starter: Sandraz    Started: Sun 17 Oct 2004    Replies: 11

Hi,watch GFL all the time and visit here for info, but this is my first posting. Some months ago I ordered really good fresh curry leaves, fresh kaffir lime leaves and spices from a London shop which also did deliveries. The stuff was great and now I want to order some more but can't remember the name of the shop or site. If anyone watches Nigella I'm sure the shop featured in one of her programmes where you saw her going in to buy a prepared spice mix. I would really like to get more stuff from this shop. Does anyone know the shop I'm talking about. From memory I think the owner started up some years ago merely with a stall and stated importing and selling online as demand grew. Here's hoping - Sandra Confused

NO! Roll Eyes SURELY NOT! Eek Not visiting books for cooks and you've only got a hundred.

SOMEONE TELL THIS PERSON TO LAY DOWN. I have a rather obsessional collection of books and when I was in books for cooks it was a case of got it, got it, got it, not, got it got it..... but .... who can resist looking. I can feel a wander round my library coming on. sigh. Do come visit Menards, visit Mammas books for cooks. Big Grin

I've banned myself from going to Books for Cooks as I have well over a hundred here and don't really need anymore, is it really like Hamleys for cooks?

Hey Sandraz,

I'm too far too really, I have 10 minutes to the train station, 50 mins on the train, 30 mins on the tube and a twenty minute walk and all the waiting on connections in between. So I only go when it co-incides with other stuff and then I do the lot. Visit books for cooks opposite the spice shop, walk the length of Portobello market and lots more. So it doesn't seem so far if you take all that into consideration. But not exactly a quick nip into a spice shop.

Georgie, I agree with you and will be recommending it to all my friends. Thanks. Sandraz.

MammaChef, I'm too far away to just drop so online will have to do me, thought it looked small from the shots on Nigella, but it's definitely a great find. Sandraz

Sandraz, I too didn't realise that this was Birgit's shop - so I learnt something by perusing the net too!

Mamachef - you lucky person! I think I would spend loads, of both money and time there if I could get to it!

Hi Sandraz,

I was in the spice shop last week, it really does have everything you could want. It's a tiny little shop but is packed from floor to ceiling. a little spicy paradise.

Jackie,
Thanks so much for this - "The Spice Shop" - how easy is that to remember!! Won't forget now. As well as that have just been in to the site and didn't realise it was Birgid Erath's - have seen her loads on GFL. Really prefer the fresh stuff and since I live in Scotland where these things are harder to find I'm delighted, Thanks again Sandra.

The shop is simply called The Spice Shop - check out google and you will find it.

Hope this helps.
