Mexican Ingredients - Where to buy in Basel?

Hello there...

I love to eat and cook Mexican food. Do you all know where to find the following?

Black Beans
Jalapenos
Cilantro
GOYA products

I've found the jalapenos only in a jar... costing 3.90 CHF!!!
Cilantro is hit and miss at the COOP.

Cheers!
Happy Eating!
Vanessa

There's a place in Basel called El Sol:

There's also El Maiz in Zurich:

http://www.elmaiz.ch/

Looks like they both ship, too

N.B. Neither place carries Goya, but they have other brands

Hi Vanessa!

Fresh cilantro can be had in any Chinese/Thai market, e.g.

New Asia Market
Some others


Buen provecho!
