Manotas Organics and Fine Foods

If you like making Mexican food at home, this is the place to shop for ingredients. Everything is so flavourful. I’ve been spoiled. Can’t buy tortilla shells anywhere else now.

Organic, delicious and cheaper than that Mad Mexican, Manotas has the best tasting guac and salsas in the city. Seriously, I make a pretty mean green guac myself, but I’m now addicted to Manotas and shuffle over to the market weekly to pick up 2 – 3 tubs of salsa and guac (yes I am a fiend). They also have other pre-​made organic foods like prepared chick peas and quinoa which are tasty, but the Du Puys lentils are an absolute must. Yes I know lentils don’t sound very appetizing, but these must be black magic lentils because they are so savoury and full of flavour that I often find myself salivating at the very thought of them. Located on the bottom floor of St. Lawrence Market, Manotas is a must visit for anyone looking for Latin inspired foods and spices.
