Asian Markets?

I hear that buying at Asian markets can be a lot cheaper than regular stores. Is there one nearby? The closest one I know of is down Mass. Ave near MIT, if they're even still open. The one in Central Square seems to be closed.

Maybe Russo's on Pleasant Street in Watertown? I know I've seen tofu in tubs (about three times the size of tofu packaging found in the regular market) near their dairy section. I would think that Super88 or the like would also carry them (but I don't actually frequent Asian markets much).

Yeah I've bought the tofu in tubs before, but it's not as large as I need. (see above)

Hmmm....maybe if you contacted the Boston Vegetarian Society someone there would know?

You mean BVS occasionally provides information that's not of the "OMG YOU SHOULD BE A VEG OR UR KILLING CUTE ANIMALS!" type?

Color me surprised.
