Where can I buy frozen banana leaves in Orillia or Barrie?

[Marnie70]

Wanting to make cochinita pibil but have run out of my stock of banana leaves bought in Kensington Market a year ago and have no desire to drive a couple hours to get more. Hoping someone in my area can give me some help on locating a closer source.

I think you'll be out of luck in Orillia, not sure about Barrie.

While I have not been yet, there is a Mexican market in Bradford, Viva Mexico, 107 Holland St E, 905-551-4461. If you do go, please report back.

Hope that helps,

Thanks,

Brian

Unless there's a latin market around there, your best bet is to look for a Phillipino or Asian market. You're about an hour away from T&T @ Richmond Hill. That might be your best bet. I saw it in the frozen section last time I was there.
