#N:uiuccsb:7000014:000:286 uiuccsb!faiman Nov 14 08:30:00 1983 A local department store has been having a sale on Cuisinart food processors, but not, alas, the DLC-X model, which is the largest in the range. Do any of you gourmets know of reliable mail-order places that would have this item at a discount? Mike Faiman 217-333-6952 uiucdcs!faiman

#N:uiuccsb:7000017:000:260 uiuccsb!faiman Nov 30 08:51:00 1983 Many thanks to dlp at akgua for recommending Zabar's at 80th and Bdwy NY 10024. They have a toll-free #: 800-221-3347, but be patient. They quoted me $300 for the largest model, list $375, so I intend trying a few more places. Mike Faiman - uiucdcs!faiman

I can't guarantee they'll have this particular model, but for most gourmet cooking supplies, you can't beat Zabar's, 249 W. 80th, NY NY 10024; 212-787-2000. They're the people who won a court case against Cuisinart when the latter refused to supply them after Zabar's started discounting their processors; obviously, this was long before anyone else was. Also, if you're ever in NY, Zabar's has one of the best collections of gourmet delicacies in the city (with all respect to Balducci fans...). It's also a zoo... *like a total experience, fer sure*. They're on the corner of Broadway & 80th. (Note: posting to the net because of possible wide interest....) {philabs,cmcl2!rocky2}!cubsvax!peters Peter S. Shenkin Dept of Biol.
