	eG Forums -> St. Lawrence Market - Toronto
		At Kensington last week I was amazed, I walked in to this south american store, and found soooo many varities of dried chillis I thought I died and went to heaven...and they had KEY LIMES....AND.....Tomatillos...I was in love....

		The markets are quite different from one another and when we cannot get to one, we miss it! While in Toronto I missed GI for early availability of many produce items that don't show up in Toronto until closer to the Toronto season.
