Where do you buy a wok?

Question

I live in a town in Ontario, and I'm not sure where to buy a wok. I checked the yellowpages, but all the wok places are restaurants.

Also, I'm going to go with a flat-bottom carbon steel wok that isn't non-stick. Most sites agree that's good.

How much will I pay for a brand new wok?

Answer 1

Bed, Bath & Beyond

Answer 2

The best place to buy a wok is from an oriental store or china town with all the gagets that come with it. it also has to be seasoned if it's not non stick.

Answer 3

If you have access to a Chinatown, go there!  You will get alot of variety and good prices.  I also suggest going to a local restaurant supply store, they too will have a large variety with good prices.

I agree, flat bottom/carbon steel is the best!  Non-stick is nice cause you use less oil and can make healthier stir frys.

Answer 4

BB&B would be your best bet, but if you dont have one, try a walmart or target

Answer 5

WALMART,TARGET,

Answer 6

I am not sure if your town has a Chinatown.  I am not sure if Tornoto has a Chinatown and if so, how far you are from there.

Here in San Francisco's Chinatown, we have a great little shop that specializes in Woks.  They have many different sizes and types.  Perhaps, if there is a Chinatown in Tornoto, you might check there.  They may have a similar type of shop.
