Ethnic Market Tour Houston – Mexican Markets


I recently made a weekend trip with my family to visit the city of Houston, TX. It was a quick last-minute decision to make the trip, and a couple of days before setting out I contacted my friend Jay Francis, who lives in Houston. 

I wanted to let him know that I was going to be in town and would appreciate any advice he had, since I was looking forward to getting to know the Mexican grocery stores in the area. Well, let me tell you, Jay really knows the Food scene in Houston! We met up and he took me to several amazing places in just one afternoon. I was excited to see all that Houston had to offer: farmers’ markets, bakeries, supermarkets, tamalerias, candy stores, and even a store where they sell fresh nixtamal masa to make your own tortillas at home! It was just like taking a little trip to Mexico. I hope you guys enjoy Jay’s guest post, along with his pictures and recommendations.

Jay Francis is an engineer, professionally, but has counted food history and food anthropology as his major hobby for many years. Because of friends and family in Mexico, he has traveled all over Mexico for over 50 years. He was fortunate to be able to assist Robb Walsh on three cookbooks as a recipe tester and researcher (The Tex-Mex Cookbook, Legends of Texas Barbecue, and The Chili Cookbook). He lives in Houston where, in retirement, he teaches cooking classes and also offers ethnic market and food tours of the city.
