One might think its pricey but you get what you pay for. The freshly roasted nuts are amazing. Try the cheese cashew or the corn nuts or the smokey almonds...all delish crunchy and healthy. Last time I was there I sampled many nuts and the coffee and then I bought some freshly roasted coffee beans....now I have that good coffee at home and love it. Tons of parking right outside. And conveniently there's a fresh fruit and vegetable market just next door with fresh, local pita bread, locally sourced sausage and all kinds of things.

Marina makes amazing cottage cheese vereniki!…read more We were having a craving for some homemade quality cottage cheese vereniki and Marina's cuisine did not disappoint! The dough is perfect, not like the mass produced perogies you get in store - no way! These are tender and flavourful and wonderful! Yum! They were so good, in fact, we posted them on our "Bite Me" Instagram page, which is all about our cooking and baking adventures! #ravingreview

This store is great. The ladies who work there are very friendly and highly likable. With one of…read morethem, Wanda (pron. Vanda), who is super-nice, I am on first name basis. My girlfriend, Cynthia, is a Philipina who grew up in Canada - she always stresses how pleasantly the ladies at the Polonia Deli treat her. I am a Canadian-Polish who is proudly Canadian, yet I would never tolerate any signs of ugliness towards non-Polish clients at that store. I go there often enough to assure any one who'd ask me that the clients who are not of Polish extraction are treated very politely, as they should be. Yes, the store sometimes turns into a little agora of Polish gossip and friendly banter, but this is quite common: all these small "ethnic" stores are alike, be it African, German, Greek, Indian, Italian, Pakistani - you name it. As for the products sold there: We have never experienced any problems. We do not eat pork so I cannot vouch for their pork-based cold cuts, yet they have chicken and turkey items, which are always fresh and excellent. We also like their preserves, pierogi (pierogi is already plural, no need to say "pierogies" :-) ), and yummy chocolate products. It is a great little store that could. Cynthia and I recommend it wholeheartedly!

I was very excited to see what was offered here in terms of the deli. Not impressed…read more I bought two (2) rings of dry sausage. I should have have followed my gut when the rings were different colors. The first ring I tried was meh, but the second ring was sour and greenish in color and I ended up spitting the meat out and throwing it in the garbage. I also bought a smoked Turkey leg which I am now VERY apprehensive about eating as I still have a bad taste in my mouth from the rotten and sour sausage. I'm sure that this place can do much better than this but I won't be back to find out. Also, the lady that was working the till seemed annoyed that an older gentleman had taken up a conversation with me - giving one word directions. Sad....

Popped in today while on a walk in the neighbourhood…read more A lovely small little corner market just on the edge of Chinatown located next to the Chinese Seniors Mansion (seniors home). I was disappointed there was no hot food (though clearly there had been at one point years ago with the signage from "Barbecue" still up. The staff were pleasant and answered all of my questions with ease. I picked up some spicy bamboo shoots to try in a curry tonight and a jar of pickled ginger because sushi never gives me enough for takeout :-) There's a smaller cooler for cold beverages but no hot food or prepared food. The produce section is better than most corner markets but still tiny in comparison to the larger Chinese Markets like Lucky 97. The woman at the till was quite friendly and easily engaged in conversation with my friend and myself. I quite enjoyed my little lunchbreak visit here today and intend to come back soon!

I like this place and they have a good selection of grab and go meals in the warmer near the front of the building. So if you are feeling peckish just choose whatever looks good. I haven't had a bad thing here and it is very affordable. So even if you don't like something it isn't a big commitment. Both items were delicious but for sure the papusas were the favourite. Thick corn tortilla stuffed with seasoned pork meat and cheese, served with tomato salsa and pickled cabbage salad! And I loved the crisp cabbage ontop. The Birra tacos - beef, onion, cilantro, corn tortilla, and spices. They have a great little convience store that sells a whole lot of Latino products. I always pick up something new to try.

Oh goodness, it is a whole store by Duchess filled with the most amazing, well like the name says: Provisions! There are cookie, cake and pie making equipment. A How-To kit for duplicating their famous macaroons. All the gadgets one would need to bake a masterpiece are in this delicious little side venture. They even have a wall stocked with jams, honeys, caramels, chocolates, nuts, salts, sugars and other high end, super must have ingredients to wow your taste buds (and show off to your dinner guests!) I bought a delightful crystallized honey as well as a jar of salted caramel that is so amazing it could be drizzled on a dust bunny and make it taste divine! I also added to my insane cookie-cutter collection, which I hide from my other half so he doesn't think I'm Kitchen Cuckoo! Oh, wait... I think he's on to me ;) This is definitely a must visit store if you are a culinary wizard, or just like to wing-it! It is a go-to destination to pick up that perfect hostess gift or for your super foodie friend. And even a $4 jar of something, in its beautiful package, will make anyone feel like a Duke or a Duchess!

As I entered this store, at their new location, the first thing that caught my eye were their displays. They are like little pieces of art telling stories about the items they carry. They have a kids section inspiring fun ideas on how to engage kids in the kitchen. There is a wide selection of flours, sugars and other baking gems (some organic and some not). They carry cookware, bakeware, bread making products, books, teas, chocolates, extracts and compounds, preserves, canning supplies, mixers, cake stands, serveware, kitchen linens, aprons and so much more. With Christmas approaching this is an excellent place to find gifts. And if you're hungry, Café Linnea is definitely worth a try next door.
