Turkey and other thanksgiving treats...

[RobRed]

Hola all! This will be my first holiday away from the U.S. and I was hoping to have a typical thanksgiving dinner. Does anybody know where I can find a turkey in Buenos Aires? I've tried Jumbo and Disco and so far no luck. I was lucky enough to find cranberry sauce and pecans for the pie, but I am still missing yams and marshmallows. Any info on the above mentioned would be greatly appreciated!
BTW: I apologize if this has been asked before, I just found this website and haven't had a chance to read all the past postings!
Thanks!

Any poultry store ¨polleria¨has turkeys, there is one on Las Heras and Laprida that has these awesome 16 pound turkeys at 8,50 pesos per kg. I saw turkey yesterday at Coto online, and Disco has both the whole turkey or just the turkey breast. For Marshmallow try the chinses neighbourhood in Belgrano, cranberries at arandanoargentino.com.

Thanks all for your replies. hshanks, I found the pecans at the Jumbo in Palermo, and saw them at Disco too. They say Nuez Pecan on the label. Finally found a turkey at a Jumbo in Almagro. Happy Thanksgiving to y'all
