Free delivery, cooking classes featuring the best uses of olive oil and lemon infused oils starting at $12.95 a bottle? No wonder Olives et Epices is such a long-time local favorite. Owned by the De Vienne family (much revered among Montréal's foodie circles), this Jean-Talon Market enterprise is a neighborhood staple, to say the least. The specialty here as the name suggests is olive oils and spices, and it's virtually a given that you'll find some you've never heard of before. Rare specimens include Indonesian spice blends and obscure but must-have herbs from Africa. Olives et Epices is a treasure trove of scents and flavors. The owners are very knowledgeable, and you are encouraged to taste before you buy.
