i remember seeing a thread that mentioned a japanese store that sells quite a variety of japanese snacks and fresh uni (opened fresh). i went thru quite a few pages of the food forum, but couldnt find the post anymore. maybe i overlooked it, but can someone tell me the name of the store and location?

I think that was J-Town. It's a japanese super market, and they sell fresh Uni at Taro's fish.

I was just at Taro's yesterday. They sell UNI, $4.50 a piece. Very fresh.
It's on Sheppard - across from IKEA and Cdn tire.

If you go to York University, they harvest Sea Urchins in the Bio labs :lol:
You could probably take a few without anyone noticing ;) Eat one or two during a bio lab haha

I've tried the fresh Uni they get in at J-town - I'm not entirely sure how fresh they are, as the taste is slightly odd - It has a coppery finish which I'm not too fond of. Hey, it's uni, so I'll eat it anyway, but i'm just sayin' ;). I don't think it's west coast uni (what I prefer), so that could be why.
