Love, love, love this place. A must visit. Every time I am in Montreal I go there. I always end up buying something. 7 years ago I got a beautiful traveling leather bag that is light and comfortable and still in a perfect shape. Last few visits I bought hamssa pendants and in the most recent one (last week) I just couldn't resist and bought a tea set - beautiful glasses in different colours, a silver coloured tea pot and a tray. Breathtakingly beautiful and practical at the same time. The owner is a lovely young man who is happy to explain about the different quality, origin of and the use of his merchandise. Two months ago they opened Medina Palace, much bigger store a few shops south to the original one (and now they operate both). It doesn't have the same "sook" (middle eastern market) feelings but it allows great display of all the beautiful things they sell. Go there, it's a treat for the eyes and the heart.
