It’s a wonderful butcher shop of high quality Washugyu. They don't only butcher the beef their company also raises the cows. Ask for Eiichi Yamamoto.

FARMER GROUND FLOUR
New York
Soy Beans
I am a bit of a Tofu snob, but something interesting you can do is buy local high quality soy beans at the Green Market from "Farmer Ground Flour." This might be an interesting way of getting intimate with the product. Hydrating the beans, grinding, cooking and expressing out the soy milk gives an amazing fresh product that might be enlightening to most home cooks.
