    hi,
    I usually shop at the Edgewater market on Clark near Ashland. Can anyone recommend a good mexican market that incorporates meat, produce and essentials closer to ravenswood/lincoln square?

    thank you!

    This http://www.chowhound.com/midwest/boards/chicago/messages/65428.html thread may be useful to you. This same info is scattered around this board in various places, but this was a concise list of good produce/ethnic groceries near you. [In this neighborhood, 'ethnic' will usually include Mexican]. Another good thread would be http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=5781.

    HarvesTime is owned by the same people who own Edgewater Produce. Even before the recent major expansion, HarvesTime was a lot bigger and better than Edgewater. The expansion more than doubled the selling space along with major increase in backroom facilities. They have many Mexican items but also a lot of things for the Greek, Eastern European and yuppie markets.

    Provided you are willing to go west to Kedzie, Cermak Produce has an even larger store with more of a Mexican orientation. Andy's Fruit Ranch also has a pretty good range of produce and meats. Andy's had some turnover and pricing problems after Cermak Produce opened but has recovered well. All three stores have parking lots, which may not be fully adequate at peak weekend times.
