All of it was high quality, *melt-in-your-mouth* meat. After waiting in line for an hour, my cousin snagged 5 lbs of fatty cow, 3 lbs of lamb and 2 lbs of pork belly and the 14 of us could barely finish half. She said it's a one man show: meat cut to order and the dude's handling the cashier portion too. Totally worth it....except this is coming from someone who didn't wait in line. Thanks, cuzzo!

They had goat, beef, chicken and salmon. Even for salmon the price was cheapest, though I didn't get it. Goat was fresh. At $10.99/lb, cannot get better than that. I also went for a whole red rooster which was $20. They cleaned and cut it for me. That was a real big bird. They had some drinks in the front - coconut water, hibiscus and orange juice. Oranje juice was good. There was milk, egg, fruits, vegetables etc. Saba Live in CT used to be my favorite butcher. I am happy to see that the same family runs the shop here. There is a bigger Saba Live in Oakland. Next I will try how that one is.

They were the only business in that building on Washington Street before moving to their longtime store on Stockton between Clay and Sacramento, across the street from the Chinatown post office. About seven years ago, likely due to a rent hike, they moved to this location on Clay Street, one building below Stockton Street. They are known for their preserved meats, such as sausages, pork belly, duck, and a variety of legs, wings, and even a pressed duck. In traditional Cantonese cuisine, these are often used in steaming over pork or rice to pass those flavors into those foods. My dad used to stop here after his weekday Chinatown lunches and bring an assortment of meats home and ask the caregiver to steam them as mentioned as a dinner dish. Recent years, my friends from Hawaii stop here when visiting to bring items they can't find on the islands home, freezing some as emergency food. ** Side note, the family is continuing their legacy in other ways with the daughter being a James Beard touted baker who has a store and restaurant in the City.
