Where to find duck breast or magret in Edmonton??

Hi, I've been looking around to find fresh or frozen duck breast but all I could find was whole duck or duck legs...Anyone as a clue where I could find it? Thanks :)

    Greens, Eggs and Ham has a variety of duck products, so I would imagine that they'd have duck breast. They're at the downtown farmers market on Saturdays - though this coming Saturday is the last for the season. They also sell products through Sobeys on Jasper and 104 Street.

      Try Smokin' Iron Farms, 11401 – 50th Street

        Save-On usually has them, but for some reason tucked away in the frozen foods section (the big ice cream, peas, etc coolers) instead of the meat section.

          Goodness..they are everywhere! I sugest finding some from Greens, Eggs and Ham as a local product. Ocean Odyssey carries them as does Sobey's Urban Fresh (or they used to) and in Sherwood Park, Butcher Block.

            I've bought frozen duck breasts at the Save-On Foods downtown (109 and Jasper) as well as at the Sobey's Urban Market downtown (104 and Jasper).

              I have not purchased them for awhile but I used to get frozen duck breast from a separate freezer adjacent to the butcher counter at Colonial then Sunterra.

              As lainekerr suggested I have also seen them at some of our common supermarket chains often including the Brome Lake Duck packages. Not necessarily on a regular basis but from time to time.

              Please let us know if you track them down as duck is something I love but rarely cook ...no pun intended............

                Ocean Odyssey has it frozen. Care It deli often has fresh breasts (already scored even!).
