KOON YICK WAH KEE CURRY POWDER IN SAN FRANCISCO

Three years ago I mentioned that the curry powder I liked had disappeared from the shelves and could not be found anywhere: Koon Yick Wah Kee Curry Powder. Today, while I was at work, someone was looking for that product and found that post.

Did you find the curry powder? It's the best curry powder I've used and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

If you did find it could you tell me where to purchase it?

Thank you

Koon Yick Wah Kee Curry Powder is usually available at Gum Sing in SF Chinatown.

GUM SING MARKET [金城平價市場]
774 Pacific Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94133.
PH: 415-989-4836

It's a well-stocked grocery store just down from the intersection of Pacific and Stockton Street. Next to the New Asia Restaurant. The proprietors speak Cantonese, Mandarin, some dialect I cannot identify but can sort of understand, and English.

I've bought several jars of curry powder there in the past three years.

Curry powder isn't the only product of the esteemed company in Sai Kung, they also make several other good things for cooking. Including a chili sauce I really should try sometime soon.
And Shrimp Sauce.

This evening I prepared a stew with a variety of meats, and stalk mustard, to be eaten sloppily over thick sourdough toast. Plus garlic, ginger, chilies, shrimp paste, and Koon Yick Wah Kee Curry Powder.

It was mesmerizingly good.
