I am looking to find some tomatilos, not jared or canned(although I'd still like to know where to get them), but fresh ones. If anyone out there has a lead, a hunch or rumor please let me know. Help find these beauties and I'll send you a bottle of the most delicious chipotle sauce you have and will ever eat.
Thanks,
Joe

I'm growing them in my garden this year.

Tomatillos... There is one in the Gangnam area and one near Jonggak Station that I know off.

I was going to try growing them too. I read that they will grow almost anywhere, as they are basically a weed. Huffdaddy, you got seeds? Or do you know where to score some? My wife's family has a farm and I guess I could grow A-LOT of em' there. I need a lot of them for the bar I cook at. Also I plan on opening my own joint soon, pre-colombian: authentic Mexican and Central American cuisine. No burritos here! Enchiladas, okay!lol
Thanks for the replies!

You are a terrorist against the ecosystem. I hope you enjoy your little green tomato while wreaking havoc on nature.

LOL! BIO-terrorist!-Yeah,what you say that's true. Although I think you are being an alarmist. I'll stick to growing on my balcony. Even though there are hundreds of non-indigenous plants growing in this country alone. I'm sure if I consulted the agriculture department I'd be good to go. Then I'll send you a basket of them, okay buddy!!?

Only if you didn't take what I said seriously. I don't want you poisoning them!

Tomatillos aren't really tomatoes.

And yes, I have seeds. This year I'm growing tomatillos, 5 or 6 varieties of peppers (including ghost peppers), 5 varieties of tomatoes, real sweet corn, okra, green beans, and some other stuff.
