Boston Shaker in New York City

[bergerka]

Ok, anyone know where I can find a Boston Shaker in New York City...like...TODAY?

a million thanks.

Kathleen, who is stupid and put off finding the hardest thing till the last minute.

Try William Sonoma.

Tried 'em, no luck.

Here are the places I have already called (should have put this in the original post)

Williams Sonoma

Bed Bath & Beyond (they have everything ELSE anyone could possibly need, though)

Crate & Barrel

Broadway Panhandler

Bridge Kitchenware (they do have it, but are doing very limited business until their new store opens and that doesn't include selling me a Boston shaker, apparently)

Pier 1

Fish's Eddy...and I called each location

Kmart (long shot, but it was worth a try)

There's that kitchen supply place at Chelsea Market, Bowery Kitchen Market. I see they don't necessarily have a Boston Shaker, but they've got a stainless shaker that could presumably serve as the bottom of a Boston Shaker when paired with a pint glass.

And maybe Gracious Home would have something...?

I would try one of the places along Bowery like

Bari Restaurant Equipment Corporation

234-244 Bowery

New York NY 10012-3501

Have you tried calling Zabar's?

[birder53]

How uncivilized has this world become when you can't easily find a Boston shaker in NYC of all places!

[bergerka]

Updates (you all rock!)

Zabar's has what they think may be just the thing, one stainless steel "tumbler" and one glass "tumbler" that fit together. Gracious Home had no idea what I was talking about after I described it thrice in words of fewer than three syllables. Chefs Warehouse Supply was recommended to me privately, and definitely has it.

I'm going to tentatively declare "mission accomplished" for now (but won't change my clothes, as I look awful in a flight suit).
