I know Benny's-the- meat-store advertises as being totally meat savvy,
but I don't really eat much meat. But we eat chicken. Lots and lots of
chicken. And Benny's is so totally the place for ordering chicken.
Other 'fresh' chicken I buy I usually need to rinse off because they
don't smell so, um, fresh. Never, NEVER with Benny's (and I've
ordered many a bird).
DID I MENTION they don't charge more for cutting up the chicken
to your specifications? ?
DID I MENTION they will REMOVE THE SKIN FOR YOU FOR
NO EXTRA CHARGE!?!
I really have been so, so, so SO impressed with them.
Oh, and the prices are GREAT. I have been getting all this gishmak
service and I have been paying LESS than what I usually find in the
grocery store. And they have the frozen chulent meat I use and ground
meat and ground turkey and all the other stuff we eat up around here.
Benny's is at 02-995-5888.

Butcher with good selection
Try Ma'adanei HaBira, Shmuel HaNavi 63.? I can't swear that he has
what you're looking for specifically, but he usually has a good selection
of meat (including cuts of lamb) and is very accommodating of customer
requests.

I like CHOFETZ CHAIM in Jerusalem for meat. They are on Aggrippas just off King George Street. There is a very helpful woman who speaks English. The owner, I am told will give out recipes if you are unsure. They have frozen fish and good hot dogs, deli meat smoked fish. I hear their rotisserie chicken is a treat, so I'll have to try that sometime. We really like the "Shnitzel Hodu."
They also have a nice assortment of American products: BBQ sauce, taco shells, Kedem grape juice.
Best of all, they deliver to many areas for 20 shekels if you buy a moderate amount. You can call and place an order, or shop there. To place an order: 623-2839
