I am from the Maritimes and I have a hard time to buy frozen fish unless you freeze it yourself. It is just not the same. Meat I have no problem frozen, anyway I will give it a try.

Thanks

You can buy Fresh fish in the fish market in Guadalajara. All the products are fresh except the Salmon.

Thanks MexYcan I did in Chapala also they even had smoked Salmon but nothing like here. The Fresh fish was awesome.

I bought some salmon and it was tasty but VERY expensive. The meat they had in the case had way too much fat and was also pricy. This is the shop behind the Pemex right?

I got some lamb filet at the Ajijic Meat Center. I could tell it was from very young lamb since the filets were very small. I cut it up and make a Moroccan tagine. It was delicious and just what I wanted. Next I will use the lamb loin for something.

I don't suppose you bought your tagine locally?!

there are 2 fish stores in ajijic. 1 near superlake, & one near colon on the same side of the street. there is another one directly across near colon as well. which of these 3 has the best fish, especially salmon? i have a feeling that the one on the mountain side may not be as good as the others. am i correct? there is also an option of buying frozen salmon from superlake, which is from guad. (that is always good, & it has the date of freezing on the package).

Pacifico, just west of Ajijic, is the best fish store, hands down.

i cannot get to w. ajijic. of the 3 stores (careterra colon/juarez opposite sides) & 2 doors down from superlake, which one do you like the best? so far i have had luck w/a 4th option, which is superlakes frozen salmon. his brother owns a fish resturant, & as i said its from guad.

We usually buy from the fish market close to Superlake.

Any stores here best for different meats, rabbit, or goat?

What's the latest on this place?

[RonaldoCaballero]

Went in now twice. Bottom line is that this is frozen, Cryovac packaged foods. For those familiar with Trader Joe's in the States, the frozen meats/fish section comes to mind. The prices at this store are really a good value, in line with frozen supply, and you simply decide if you're out for fresh now at some of the best carniceria's,  Tony's, or other if and as you prefer, or if you want stock for the freezer to pull out, thaw and use when ready as overall food supply in the casa. .
