Jean Talon Market





Another stop during our Montreal visit was to the Jean Talon Market, located in Little Italy. This open-air market began in 1933. And on this particular Sunday it was cold cold cold. But the massive piles of beautiful fruit and vegetables were impressive and the prices a lot better than we'd find at home.
We wandered about checking out the fresh produce, baked goods, meat, cheese and flowers and plants.

We treated ourselves, at Patisseries le Rygard, to some traditional rose-flavoured Turkish Delight. It was covered in powdered sugar that spills down your front as you eat it. And it was delicious!
