Where are your favourite places to shop? I'd love to hear about your favourite independent shops, that might sell things like burnt sugar syrup, and other West Indian ingredients that aren't likely to be available at a standard supermarket.

Charley's on Morningside was mentioned in the Black Cake thread on the baking forum. I realize there are a lot of shops in/near Kensington Market, Eglinton West, Oakwood & St. Clair & Scarborough, but was curious if anyone posting has any shops they go out of their way to visit.

Thanks for any suggestions!

I get general Caribbean supplies at Soon Lee, Markham and Lawrence.

I would really like to find a source of pimento wood chips, for jerk smoking.

Anyone?
