  • My favourite farmer's market I've ever been to and I haven't even visited in the spring or summer - once in October and once in November. When I first got to this market I just wandered around for the first hour trying to process everything. There is so. much. food!! I'm from Southwestern Ontario and have had to adjust to the different fruits and vegetables that grow well this far north (Essex County peaches, how I miss you!) and visiting in October was fun because for me spring and fall produce are where Quebec really shines. The squash, pepper, leek, onion, apple and cranberry selection was out of this world. They had green tomatoes for sale which I love and is the logical thing to do at the end of the summer. I caught the end of mushroom season on my first visit and picked up several kinds of wild mushrooms I've never had before and the stall owner was so helpful in explaining how to prepare and cook them (they were so delicious). When we went back in November I was able to find beautiful jerusalem artichokes for a much better price than I've found them in Ottawa. Although everyone speaks French first they're quick and happy to switch to English to help if you need them to, and patient if you'd like to practice your French. As if the produce wasn't enough, there are also butchers, cheese shops, charcuterie stands (Cochons tout ronds is my favourite! The L'Akota is a must-try.), a phenomenal spice vendor, cookbook and kitchen shops, fishmongers and patisseries. Several shops offer prepared food, from fresh-fried calamari, fresh-shucked oysters (they were in season), sandiwches, pastas, burgers, rotisserie meats... I didn't try any but boy was I tempted. Surrounding the Marché Jean-Talon are even more food shops, all of which are delightful. I'm sure I'm forgetting something - there's just so much there! If you are a cook or a foodie in Montreal and you don't visit this market, you are cheating yourself. It's worth taking the Metro ride or a drive up to visit no matter what part of the city you're in.
