Does anyone know where I can buy the children's chopsticks they have in Wagamama?

I've had enough of grovelling at our local one for some spares to take home and wondering where I can buy some? Googled but getting nowhere. I will try local oriental supermarket but just wondered if anyone knows anywhere specific - online or Central London if possible. Thanks.

They're the ones that slot together at the top.

big chinese supermarkets in China town in Soho might or a Japanese shop in Oriental City in Colindale ( if that hasn't closed yet) - might do a mail order..or even Muji

Not sure of what you mean (never been to wagamama), but would something like these help?

onceinalifetime · 12/07/2008 09:48

Thanks MAS, I tried Oriental City but the place was practically empty and very run down, looks like it's closing down very soon. I suppose it's a trawl of Chinatown then.

Or these?

Or these?

Thanks JackieNo, I saw those and might get them but the Wagamama ones are disposable wooden ones and they're flatter so a bit easier to use. Both school and nursery specifically recommend these as good for pincer grip pratice.

We got Rookie Stix at Sainsbury's. Also Kitch N Sync do them with animals on the top.

Thanks BibiThree but I particularly want the wooden ones that slot together. The plastic ones are narrower and more slippery. [fussy bitch/pedant emoticon]

That's fine, dd loves her animal ones, can't eat with them for toffee, (she's only 3) but bless her, she tries hard. If you get any luck post again so I can get her some wooden one too?

Thanks and good luck!

JackieNo · 12/07/2008 13:34

Ooh - Wooden ones?

MaryAnnSingleton · 12/07/2008 13:42

have looked on Wagamama website in their shop and no chopsticks - you'd think they'd sell them !

yes,I suggested Muji too

MaryAnnSingleton · 12/07/2008 13:53

nope, they only seem to do separate chopsticks

palaver · 12/07/2008 14:21

They are called Klik Snacksticks and are supplied by a co called W K Thomas & Company. email [email protected]

I think you might have to buy 1000 as they are catering suppliers www.wkthomas.com/

Guess who had lunch at Wagamams?

onceinalifetime · 12/07/2008 21:00

Sorry, been out all day. Thank you very much everyone for all the replies but bloody hell most of all palava for going well beyond the call of duty - I think I owe you lunch ! Never would have worked out that they were called snacksticks - not sure about getting through a 1,000 in a lifetime though.......

not wagamama, but bamboo and similar principle - should work?

I happen to have found a supplier but it's in China. If anyone courageous enough to try...

I found this old thread when Googling the same question so if anyone else still has this question...

You can buy snacksticks on eBay at www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/202063099409

0hCrepe · 30/10/2017 07:55

They do the plastic ones in the range

molusc · 30/10/2017 08:29

The OP was looking for the exact ones they have in Wagamamas - the Snacksticks with slightly pointed end. i.e. the ones for sale in the eBay listing I linked to.

Those bamboo ones on Pipii.co.uk look pretty similar; just a slightly different shape.

0hCrepe · 31/10/2017 19:28

I know well done!
I was just saying about the others in the range in case someone else googled looking for them as I doubt the op is still looking 9 years later!
