Brett – you might want to ask indianfoodrocks.com about fresh kaffir lime fruit. As for real Chinese food in CO – I haven’t found any so far…

re: “Golden Lotus”

I am no expert on Chinese food but, I don’t think I have ever had “good” Chinese food in the USA. Just cooking artocities with over-fried stuff and obviously jar / bottled sauces. That being said, I haven’t really hunted it down. Yelp reviews are worthless because the reviwers are 99% people who have NO $#%$# IDEA what Chinese food should taste like.

Can you get real Chinese food in Colorado outside of someone’s home kitchen?

I cook Japanese, Sri Lankan, Malaysian, Indonesian and Thai and I can get most ingreedients at this store, the Indonesian store behind Best Buy on 28th, and Pacific Ocean Market in Broomfield. Thai cooking is the hardest to get sutff for. I cannot find fresh kaffir lime fruit anywhere in Colorado.

Jen – I just happened upon your blog and I was at this store over the weekend trying to figure out what the heck to buy! I decided to go home, refer to my Kylie Kwong cookbook and go back to tackle this. I will be checking out your blog regularly as I am passionate about cooking and live in Boulder. Thanks for the contribution!!

Fiona – you can always take a photo of an ingredient and email it to me. I can’t say I know what everything is, but I can always take a stab at it!

Jeanne – awww, thank YOU.

Debbie – I think my folks might know of that store!

TKW – you’ll have to drop by and check it out, woman :)

Mrs. E – It’s popular with non-Asians too. Boulder doesn’t have a huge Asian population anyway, so I’m not surprised.

Eileen – Oh boy, I can’t see myself wanting to write a cookbook, but thanks for thinking I should!

Caramelsutra – I didn’t know her sister ran the place next door. I’ll have to try it out. Thanks for the tip on Five Spice too.

Kimberly – yes, and hopefully you’ll find the ingredients you were looking for :)

Nate – CA is definitely where it’s at!

Sarah – very true.

Audra – bummer, eh? I had been to Golden Lotus once and didn’t quite go for it. It’s all very “white”.
