  • This is one of my most favorite places to go food shopping! And plant/seedling shopping in the spring. I try to get up to Jean Talon Market about once every two weeks or so, monthly when I'm super busy. In the summer it's a nice bike ride (there are bike racks and a bixi stand right nearby), and otherwise the market is well situated between the 55 bus and the Jean Talon metro. A hint for drivers: it's actually cheaper to park in either the above ground or underground lots operated by the market, if you're only going to be stopping for an hour or so, versus parking meter rates. Plus the parking attendants are always so friendly. I will occasionally drive up to take advantage of the Mondou located just across the street, to stock up on cat food and litter, and then pop into the market for goodies as well. Some of my faves include: - buying flats of 30 eggs (we eat a lot of eggs) - nachos and gauc from Taco Del Ray up on the Northern side of the market - organic meat from St Vincent on the Eastern side of the market (ask about their bulk meat boxes, they are a good deal!) - local honey (some say it's good for the immune system) - browsing about the Marche des Saveurs for interesting beers - whatever produce is seasonal (most vendors clearly label wether their produce is local or imported, when in doubt ask!) - popping into Motta and Capitol for Italian cheeses and cans of tomatoes and breads Yes, it does get crowded on nice weekend afternoons, and takes some patience. I've grown a tolerance over the years, as I've been coming with my parents and grandparents since I was a child. The tricks is to take it slow, not rush, and not get upset. Chat with the vendors, who are usually more than happy to tell you about what they are selling. Take some time to listen to the buskers, who liven up the place. Bring lots of reusable sturdy bags, or even better a pull cart, and you're all set.
