The largest outdoor market in North America, Jean-Talon Market leaves no tastebud unturned among its "sprawling maze of vendors," who span an entire city block. Sample fresh produce, local organic meats and game, handmade cheeses, and "the best artisanal ice cream" in Montreal while meandering through "impressive alleys and fascinating crowds." Open 7 days a week, year-round (though the winter weather calls for enclosure), this "off-the-beaten-path" market is a favorite of Montreal residents and offers a "rich, authentic market experience" for food-obsessed (or just hungry) tourists. www.travelocity.com/localsecrets
