I have heard that the worlds best fabric comes from Biella in the Piemonte, not far from Torino. I think I will visit this town on my next trip. Have any of you been to Biella?
Not really : 80 dollars for an ounce is a fairly good price I reckon. Cheaper than in most places in Europe at least. Of course you'll have to go to Roxbury for that.
Btw I might go there again to visit my host parents in a near future. Maybe we can meet for a drink or something.

Is this still the fashion thread?

I have. Biella is near Lago d'Aorta as I recall. A very quiet little town. I don't recall the fashion fabrics, but I remember that the chicks were ugly..

Back in the days there was a Popeye's chicken restaurant in Roxbury, not too far from Brigham and Women's hospital. When I used to bring my mother there cancer treatments, I used to brave the conditions of being the only white boy in the area and go grab me some chicken and dirty rice. So i know Roxbury fairly well.
