Exotic fruit in Toronto ⨸ Rare fruit seeds ⨸ ◈ Tropical fruit Toronto ◈

Rambutans, Tamarind, Persimmons, Soursop, Sweetsop, Rose apple, Jackfruit, Mangosteen, fruits in Toronto
So, Your looking for exotic fruit?  Well, Toronto Canada is where its at!
Im sure most people around the world might laugh if they were told Canada is the place for exotic fruit, but thanks to our multicultural communities, our connections spread across the globe, this in turn leads to hard working entrepreneurs finding a way to bring a taste from back home to our little slice of heaven here in the Toronto. While foodies can drool over the selections of fresh durians, mangosteens, jackfruit and rambutans. The health nuts ( which I am!! )  get to experience medicinal food such a soursop, soursop leaves, sweetsop, galangal, etc. etc..
There never seems to be a short supply and prices are not to bad, even with the jack fruit.
The area We scouted was the kensington market, We made our way over to spadina and then headed down towards dundas st, along the way there is shop after shop selling rare and unique fruit/veggies. The main store We were heading to was lost after being bombarded by the large selection of food before it.
(We will post another update on the trip to the new store!)
