One of the best supermarkets in the city. On the edge of Korea Town and just North of Bloor. Fine foods/artisanal and organic produce. We love this place but it is expensive.

This shabby veg/fruit shop has been in the hood for close to 100yrs. Cash only. Best to buy after Pinto returns from the market after 12 noon or on Fridays after 9am. Dirt cheap. Don't let the outside fool you. This is where the people who really cook daily shop.

A trip to Toronto is not complete without a visit to Kensington Market. Save your appetite and eat there. The world of food. Good luck choosing. Shopping is also great fun and varied. Blue Banana, is a great place to buy Canadian gifts to take back home. Best to double up this trip with a visit to chinatown. Pedestrian Sundays in the summer- NO cars on the last Sunday of every month in Kensington!
