csaba81 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Things like bonito flakes, mirin, cooking sake, natto etc. My plan was to investigate at Bakermart, Yok and as a last resort, Rinping. Any other suggestions, please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamb00ler Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I can't answer about Japanese ingredients but Tops in Central Festival has a better selection of American/Canadian type ingredients than Rimping and at better prices. I would suggest you check there before heading to Rimping. It will be a few days, but I'll check out Tops and Bakermart for Japanese ingredients on my next visit. I live close to all the markets you mentioned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FolkGuitar Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Both Rimping and Tops carry Natto. Both carry Katsuo. Rimping, and Tops-Chotana have mirin. Makro carries nori in 40-sheet packages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csaba81 Posted August 7, 2021 Author Share Posted August 7, 2021 I checked out Bakermart and Yok. Neither is of any use for Japanese cuisine. Definitely more available at Rimping but have yet to check out Tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have more variety than Tops -Kad Suen Kaew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Rice Balls Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 I used to cook for Rimping, as they are way overpriced...The mini sushi chef in me would hunt down some Japanese rests and ask them where THEY get supplies. Go during slow times to get better food quality and they would have time to chat you up as u compliment them, as your Chef will remember you, trust me... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people have a hard time grasping this simple concept. Go ask the people in the trade. THEY know where to source stuff. Works for cars, bikes, boats, cooking, you name it. Asking a bunch of foreigners where to purchase something in Thailand - 555 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Why not buy from the place where the Japanese restaurants buy from? We buy all of our Japanese cooking supplies from a place in Nong Hoi. It's on the R side coming from the city. I don't know the name - you will have to research it. It's a very busy shop. They have all the sauces, vinegars, seaweed, sushi making supplies and lots of imported frozen items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
