Sabor Latino

Je viens ici depuis que je suis tout petit. Les odeurs de pains sucré et de plats typiques latino nous accueillent. Avec une boucherie dans le fond du commerce, on ressort de cet endroit avec tout ce qu’il faut pour concocter un souper exotique. Il y même des pigñatas à vendre suspendu au plafond. Avant de reprendre la route quoi de mieux que de faire une petite halte au resto afin de faire le plein de bonne bouffe authentique!

Latino bottega, meat shop, bakery & restaurant. All under one roof. If you close your eyes and open upon entering you could imagine you are in El Barrio in east Harlem. The grocery store is small packed but has many if not all of the ingredients needed for a Latin inspired recipe or meal. As other have mentioned the bakery is pretty unbelievable. Churros, buns, cookies, cakes and so many tasty sweet items. The butcher shop has some different cuts and I noticed Mexican chorizo sausages and even Colombian chorizo. Plus many other different cuts that your Metro or IGA would not have. They did have an excellent selection of fresh tortas and tortillas. Mostly corn ones but I did see some wheat based also in different sizes. I walked over to the restaurant and it was too busy for me to discover but it looked like they had fresh steamed tamales and the smell was one of cornmeal and pork in the resto. It smelled amazing. Just as your mouth salivating feeling as a running faucet… l amazing!
I must come back and take more time to discover earlier in the day!

Une épicerie-​restaurant qui goûte bon les saveurs de l’Amérique latine !
Côté dégustation, laissez-​vous emporter sous l’équateur par les tamales (petits pâtés de farine de maïs fourrés cuits dans une feuille de maïs), les arepas vénézuéliennes, les bananes plantains, les haricots noirs et les frites de yuca. J’y ai retrouvé le bon goût des épices qui m’avaient ensorcelé les papilles lors de mon voyage au Pérou.
Côté épicerie, on s’envole pour le Mexique ou des pays plus lointains avec de nombreuses sauces, des sodas exotiques et des piments en tous genres.
Une belle adresse pour se dépayser et se réchauffer au cœur de l’hiver. Sabor latino porte décidément bien son nom !

Great Latino supermarket/​bakery and restaurant, which also does takeout, and CHEAP. I often come here to get baked goods or just will go to the restaurant side for delicious, generously-​portioned meal. Again, this is also very reasonably-​priced and very satisfying. Here is where one can find all sorts of Latino groceries and spices as well as packaged goods. Love the place!

Amazing place! The food is so tasty it’s unbelievable. We tries every items on their menu and fell in love with the place!
A+++ for taste & $$$

Belle variété de produit latino-​américains. Fruits, légumes, légumineuses, riz, salsa, tortillas, piments et sauces picantes. Aussi repas préparés. À deux pas du marché Jean-​Talon. À découvrir!

this is the exact same one as the one on plateau mont-​royal.
it offers south american products, mostly canned foods and pickled vegetables. there’s a restaurant adjacent the grocery store if you ever get hungry. mind you, it closes at the same time as the grocery store.
what i like about the place is the sweet buns. cookies, bread, muffins, donuts, custard filled pastry. they are all around 60 cents and freshly made. may not be the greatest thing but they are good enough and for the price, one hell of a deal. they do have churros and cake but those are «pricier», around $ 2-​$ 3
definitely worth a stop for a quick buns snack before hitting JTM

What a fantastic discovery!
This is a south American heaven. There are three parts to this place. A butcher who had beautiful cuts of meats. A supermarket with tons of authentic south American products, not that Old El Paso crap. And finally a restaurant.
The restaurant has a variety of scrumptious dishes, all of which can be for take out. This is more of a fast food place, not a proper sit down restaurant with service.
I played the dummy that I am and the staff was eager to answer my questions. I can’t wait to go back!
