Ignacio Allende y Ramirez Local 1

Here's a place with great equip. for pro and home chefs...I don't recall seeing a pizza stone there but it's sure worth a try, I'll bet they can order one if they do not stock them. This is the closest thing I've seen to a Sur La Table on the Baja! Not a big place but they have a nice selection IMHO.

Proacyr, B. Juarez at Heroes de Indepencia 612.125.9804 proacyr@yahoo.com.mx

my last trip there I bought a good quality omelet plan at prices comparable to u.s.

Eric, here's the info on the guy who built our pizza oven. He owns the fired brick yard here in la Paz and can make you any size you need. Padre Tile 612-128-0581. Tell him we sent you

okay, here's my best kept secret for today...

Almacen La Victoria on Ramirez between Pineda and DeLeon I think


they have coconut milk, LOTS of asian ingredients (some of the restaurants must shop there),

spring roll wraps both frozen and dried, tofu, surimi, wasabi, surimi, great goodies!!!


and some general groceries and paper goods. Reminds me a bit of a small "Smart and Final" store that you would find in California.

In order to feed two birds with one hand, you might consider the print business connected with Ciudad de los Ninos (near 5 de Febrero and Revolucion). The print shop supports this program for both orphans and young people whose families simply cannot afford to feed and house them. (Many people believe mistakenly that this "orphanage" is supported by the Catholic cathedral next door; Ciudad is independently funded and operated.) They are wonderful folk, and even though the printing costs a bit more than other large shops in town, it's for the kids...

We sell a large variety of vegetable seeds, irrigation equipment, compost, and organic pest control products at very low prices to help fund the community gardens in La Paz.  Our point of sale for the moment is the Sabores De La Tierra Community Farm on Nayarit street just a half block from the beach in Colonia Manglito.  There are a couple of old cement towers on the property that you can see from afar and the front gate has a big mural. Our ours during the summer are Monday-Friday, 9am-1PM.  We will have more points of sale come Fall.  For more info check Raíz de Fondo - Inicio http://www.raizdefondo.org   Raíz de Fondo - Inicio http://www.raizdefondo.org Raíz de Fondo Jardines Y Educación A.C.     View on www.raizdefondo.org http://www.raizdefondo.org  Preview by Yahoo       There is a menu on the above right side of the page to view it in English

nutmeg, allspice, black peppercorns, fennel, dill weed. anise, star anise, cloves, cinnamon, curing salt, pickling spice and so much more at any of the stores called semillas y cereales. One of the best and most complete is Semillas y Cereales Guadalajara on Revolucion between Degollado and Ocampo in the heart of downtown. Fresh herbs as already posted, are at the mercadito madero farmers market. And the Aramburo supermarkets seem to carry a larger variety of dry spices than the other supers.
