I'm in the Northwest but the place I bought the Butterfly brand wasn't in
China town, it was in a Korean/generic Asian grocery store. (There are a lot
of those over here on the left coast as you may well imagine).It's in the
place on the tea shelves where the nicer looking (like gifty type) boxes or
tins of things like Jasmine are sold, at least in the store I found it in.
Happy hunting!
