Hi @PorkyBelly,

I don’t think there’s enough Butter on that Chi Spacca toast. :stuck_out_tongue: :open_mouth:

I read something that hummus is going to replace avocado on toast. Not for me :slight_smile:

Recently tried the anchovy butter toast at Chi Spacca. It was really good. Could subsist on only that.

I would start with La Española and/or Epicurus Gourmet

i noticed mozza is selling their anchovies to-go now, it just says they’re cantabrian anchovies and doesn’t give a brand, but i’m pretty sure they’re the pujado solano anchovies they use for their mozzarella, garlic toast, and anchovy dish. another option if you don’t have time to drive down to la espanola meats @TheCookie, @NYCtoLA

Bay Cities or direct from La Espanola. Bay cities is a bit cheaper.

These are my very favorite anchovies but they are susceptible to spoilage and need to be kept cool. The wine cellar seems to work well.

awesome thanks.

Heads up, La Espanola has a deep discount on Pujado Anchovy Fillets near expiration. I placed an order after reading this thread and was happy to find this score!
