Venezuelan Hallacas In Toronto
Hi!
At Christmas my SO misses Hallacas that are everywhere in Venezuela. Anyone know of a place in Toronto that sells these? I would be very grateful if anyone can help me.

Are hallacas similar to tamales? If you'll settle for tamales, I'd recommend Columbus Bakery. Most tamales available around town will be home-made, or at least not commercially made.
Columbus Bakery
2931 Dufferin, east side south of Lawrence

Good luck finding them!
